Because we enjoy showing quality Lhasa Apsos, and because we breed on a limited basis, our one to two year old Lhasa Apsos are sometimes available for adoption.

There are advantages to getting a purebred AKC Champion. For one thing you know that judges of the breed have picked the champion Lhasa as a quality representation of the breed. You also know that they have been trained to walk on a lead and to be handled by complete strangers. A aggressive dog will not survive being judged but rather be disqualified.

By getting a Champion Lhasa from a respected breeder, you also know that care has been taken in the breeding to insure temperament, health, as well as to look like a Lhasa is meant to look.

While most people choose to cut down their Lhasa for ease of care and to allow for the fun activities Lhasas like to be involved in, most Champion Lhasas will come in full coat, so you can actually choose whether to keep them long, or to give them a terrier cut.

Typically, Lhasas placed after their year or years of showing are spayed or neutered prior to placement. It is expensive to breed a Lhasa (or any other pure breed show dog). Before a Champion Lhasa becomes available, we have likely spent over a thousand dollars in everything from show expenses to dental, whelping, and spaying/neutering the dog.

While we are in the process of breeding and showing less, over the past several years we have finished Championships on an average of five Lhasas. While we may or may not breed a litter this year, we should finish five or more champions through 2012.
