The Lhasa apso comes in all colors. However, the most popular shade is wheaten, accented with darkened hues. Sometimes the apso appears as though it stepped out of a local beauty shop after having its hair frosted. This little clump of a dog will vary in size. The males are approximately eleven to twelve inches across the shoulder.
Bitches are approximately ten inches across the shoulder.
The hair of the Lhasa apso is straight and heavily plumaged, requiring daily brushings. If you do not have the time to brush this little one, it s best to select a shorthaired breed. If not groomed frequently, the Lhasa apso s hair will become matted. The Lhasa apso sometimes has an under bite, or the bite may be uniform. Check out that bite when purchasing an apso.
