The Lhasa
Apso is a small intelligent dog that for centuries was
almost unknown outside Tibet, where the mighty Mount
Everest stands like a guardian sentinel. The dogs served
as monastery watchdogs against any intruder who got past
the Tibetan Mastiff, thus giving rise to their native
name of Abso Seng Kye (Bark Lion Sentinel Dog).
The Lhasa Apso is a loving playful dog with its master,
but wary and aloof around strangers. |
