Sure they will wag their tails like other dogs but they will also rub their head on you, roll around or lie at your feet. These are all signs that you are doing an amazing job caring for your little, furry friend and giving him a happy life. Interestingly enough, in a happy home, the Lhasa Apso will do anything to please their owner and as a result are very trainable. So if you are looking for a loyal family member that is eager to please and will provide you with hours of enjoyment then you should consider getting a Lhasa.<\/p>\n
Lhasa Apso Fast Fact – <\/strong>This fact is for Kody, my parent’s dog, since he seems to have bad eyesight, which is normal for this breed. In fact, these dogs are prone to several eye conditions that will often leave them blind. Luckily, they don’t rely heavily on their eyesight and as a result are able to carry on with their life, without much disruption.<\/p>\nThanks for reading the first of the two Wild Facts dedicated to my friend, Picasso. Tomorrow we will look at a second breed that I believe he was mixed with. Enjoy the rest of your day.<\/p>\n
