Lhasa Apso dogs have special, interesting personalities. They're generally mischievous, playful, happy, fierce, regal, and independent. In addition, these pups take guarding seriously. The downside, though, is that it may take some time for them to grow and may stay puppyish until they're old.
Despite their small size, they aren't at all fragile. They're strong and tend to be wary around strangers. They do make friends, but that's only if they're sure they don't pose any threat. With that, they make excellent watchdogs.
As independent dogs, they're inclined to be top dogs. Socialization, training, and pup classes go a long way in teaching them canine manners, as well as their tendency to think they can rule everyone. Owners should be strong but kind.
These pups are happy indoors and aren't too active. Also, they aren't like other breeds who need vigorous exercises just to reduce their nervous energy. Still, they may enjoy playtime and short walks.
