JUST ONE BEAUTIFUL BOY LEFT and one of the most stunning of the litter!

THEY ARE GETTING MORE BEAUTIFUL BY THE DAY....

TUSHITA TEMON (means "brown bear")

SO FOR ALL THOSE WHO MISSED OUT ON OUR LAST LITTER, HERE IS YOUR CHANCE TO BOOK NOW!
I DO NOT SAY "BOOK NOW" LIGHTLY, AS ANYONE WHO KNOWS OUR LHASA APSOS WILL KNOW THAT THEY
GO VERY QUICKLY AND IF YOU HAVE A GREAT HOME TO OFFER, THEN PLEASE RING OR EMAIL ME STRAIGHT AWAY!

When meeting an adult Lhasa Apso, treat it with the same reserve and respect you would afford a large dog! They are NOT fluffy toys and do not like to be gushed over. The relationship with the owner is the thing to go by, not the relationship with you, because simply, it is not your dog.

All puppies are immunized, wormed, registered with the Canine Council, vet checked and come with their vet card and a Diet Sheet. Follow up advice is always available.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN ADOPTING A PUPPY:

*Do not listen to breeders who run other breeders or showers down, by word or innuendo.

*Do not buy a puppy simply because it has a string of Champions in its lines or because they have a lot of show dogs - this does not reflect the health or temperament of your puppy.

*Make sure you have a good rapport with the breeder and that they are willing to answer your questions.

*Do not be overawed by a beautifully groomed dog, look carefully at how it responds to the breeder and what sort of relationship they have with their dogs.

*Your puppy will be TINY and totally dependent upon you - your breeder should tell you how to handle the puppy, train it, feed it and so on.

*Good breeders do not accept a "cash in hand" attitude and sell their puppies off to the first person who comes along, which is why they SHOULD ask you to book your puppy and get to know you! This also enables the breeder to know what sort of temperament you need in a puppy for your personal situation. Remember that a good Breeder will be around their puppies and handling them from birth and will get to know each one's temperament much better than you can in a few hours in the breeder's home. If they do NOT know their puppy's personalities, they are not good breeders!

*DO NOT expect a good breeder to allow you to go to their home and "see all their dogs" when they have a pregnant female! A good breeder should be concerned about the security and feelings of the pregnant female MORE THAN ANYTHING.

*GOOD BREEDERS CANNOT allow people in to see their puppies until they are covered for Parvo Virus - around 7 weeks of age. Parvo can be carried on shoes, clothing or hands and no good breeder would allow any contact with their litter (OR their other dogs) until the puppies have had their first shots.

*The breeder will ask you questions and want to know about you.

*The Breeder should be breeding to meet the STANDARD set down for a Lhasa Apso and should be able to explain this to you - whether it is for pet or show.

*Good Breeders will be sure of each mating and will know there are no health or temperament problems in their lines.

Our puppies enjoy a wonderful reputation by all those who own them and will continue to do so, but never at the expense of our beloved dogs! We place LOVE AND CARE above all else to ensure that puppies will be healthy, of good temperament and well socialised from birth! All puppies are born and reared inside the home - our dogs are not kenneled and are part of our family.

The mothers are fed the best quality and variety of raw foods with no additives, colourings or toxins, along with all supplements needed for a healthy mother and puppies! The life expectancy and health of both mother and puppies are of prime importance to us, as a pup's health depends on how well the mother was treated during her pregnancy and throughout her life.
