Introduction

The Tibetan Terrier is an affectionate, outgoing, and playful breed that can adapt to life in any size of home. With their fabulous long coats and kind, people-oriented natures, they have become much-loved family pets and companions in homes around the world.

History

The Tibetan Terrier was originally bred to guard monasteries and herd flocks in the Himalayas. They are the tallest of the Tibetan breeds and are revered as the original “Holy Dogs of Tibet”. They were much-prized by monks and nomads as loyal companions and watchdogs, and were held in such high regard that mistreating a Tibetan Terrier would lead to banishment from a community. Believed to be “lucky dogs”, travellers were sometimes gifted a Tibetan Terrier to keep them safe on their journeys.

Personality

Fun-loving and loyal, the Tibetan Terrier forms strong bonds with its people and will raise the alarm if they detect strangers or anything untoward. However, they are never aggressive and will choose to keep their distance until visitors to their home are given the all-clear. They thrive on being involved in everything that’s going on and make energetic playmates for older children as well as devoted family companions.
