Written by Tibetan-breed scholar, Juliette Cunliffe, this remarkable little book provides an insightful account of the Lhasa's ancestry in Tibet and beyond, as well as discussions of breed characteristics and standard, puppy selection, feeding, coat care and grooming, training, preventative health care and showing. The new owner will welcome advice about puppy-proofing the home, preparing for the pup's arrival, housebreaking and preventing puppy problems. In addition to an authoritative, comprehensive text, this book presents over 135 photographs in full color, which prove to be as informative as they are attractive. Helpful hints and important information are highlighted to provide easy access to everything the reader needs to know about life with a Lhasa from puppyhood to the senior years.
