Care Tips for Lhasa Apsos

1

Regular Grooming: Lhasa Apsos have long, dense coats that require regular grooming to prevent matting and tangles. Brush their coat several times a week and schedule professional grooming every 4 to 6 weeks.

2

Consistent Training: These intelligent dogs can be independent and occasionally stubborn. Use positive reinforcement techniques and consistent training to establish good behavior and strengthen your bond.

3

Moderate Exercise: Ensure your Lhasa Apso gets moderate daily exercise to maintain a healthy weight and prevent boredom. Short walks and playtime are typically sufficient for this breed.
