Considered “easy to maintain,” affectionate and good companion, the Lhasa Apso was bred as a guard dog and therefore can be aloof, stubborn, and can bark loudly and harshly.
#1 Lhasa Apso is a small but very charismatic native of Tibet, one of the oldest dog breeds, with a glamorous appearance and independent character.

#2 Lhasa apsos are wary of strangers and even after socialization does not cease to suspect strangers of intruders.

#3 The breed is ideal for owners who want to be aware of any intrusions into the territory: dogs consider it their direct responsibility to bark at everyone who appears on the doorstep.
