Despite his name Spaniel, the Tibetan Spaniel is not related to spaniels and is not known to have been used as a hunting companion or gundog. He is a dog who loves comforts and companionship and displays a charming, good nature. They live to play and are heartier than their size may suggest. All solid colors and mixtures permissible. Yes, good with children, he makes a splendid house pet.
Extra care needs to be taken during seasonal shedding.
Trim hair between pads of feet, trim nails, clean ears and teeth. Bathe only when necessary. Needs routine walks and runs as he loves to romp outdoors and does his best when he has received a lot of exercise. Sometimes stubborn he may be hard to housebreak. He will benefit from obedience training.
