Missy is a Lhasa Apso Mix!

The Lhasa Apso originated in Tibet where it was revered in the villages and monasteries. The first dogs to be seen in the west were brought by one of the Dalai Lamas.

The Lhasa is a tough, independent little character. It can be stubborn and bold, but will be happy to nap beside its’ owner. The coat needs regular brushing and combing. It should weigh less than 15 pounds and stand under 11 inches tall.

The exercise needs can be met with a short play session or a walk on leash. This is not an outdoor dog and will readily adapt to apartment life.

We are pleased to welcome Missy to our practice!
