TIBETAN TERRIER
History - The Tibetan terrier originated nearly 2,000 years ago in the rugged mountains of Tibet, where it was kept by Buddhist monks for companionship and luck. It was also given by the monks as a gift of good luck to visitors. The Tibetan terrier is not a terrier at all, but is believed to be a relative of the Lhasa apso.
Temperament - Tibetan terriers are good-natured, playful, curious companions suitable for city, suburban, or country living. Very responsive to obedience training, they enjoy the company of gentle children about eight years or older, and get along with most other animals. They may be wary of strangers and have the solid bark their ancestors used when guarding Tibetan monasteries.
Upkeep - Tibetan terriers need to be brushed daily and need plenty of exercise.
Size - height 14-17 inches, weight 18-30 pounds.
