Lhasa Apso Puppies For Sale
Ancient Tibetan Sentinel — Regal and Independent
The Lhasa Apso is one of the world's oldest and most storied dog breeds, with a history stretching back over a thousand years to the sacred monasteries and palaces of Tibet. Named after the holy city of Lhasa, these dogs served as indoor sentinels alongside the massive Tibetan Mastiffs who guarded the exteriors, and the Dalai Lama himself kept Lhasa Apsos as treasured companions. Their keen hearing and natural watchdog instincts made them invaluable guardians of Tibetan nobility, and they were considered so sacred that they could never be purchased — only given as gifts. Today, the Lhasa Apso retains that independent, regal bearing and serves as a devoted, alert companion whose flowing coat and dignified demeanor turn heads wherever they go.
A Flowing Coat That Barely Sheds
The Lhasa Apso's crowning glory is their long, flowing double coat, which parts naturally at the center of the back and drapes elegantly to the floor when kept in full show coat. This dense, heavy coat was developed to protect them from the extreme temperatures of the Tibetan Plateau and produces remarkably little shedding for a long-coated breed. Lhasas come in a wide variety of beautiful colors including honey, golden, sandy, slate, smoke, and parti-color combinations. They are small but sturdy dogs, typically weighing between 12 and 18 pounds, with a longer body relative to their height. Their dark, deep-set eyes peer out from behind their signature facial furnishings with an expression of calm wisdom.
