Product Description
From the Inside Flap
Equipped with ‘snowshoes’, a hardy constitution and a profuse coat covering his dark brown eyes, the Tibetan Terrier hails from the mystical land of Tibet and has become one of the modern world’s canine wonders. Believed to be a talisman for those who welcome him into their homes, this loyal and outgoing dog brings good luck as well as good companionship and humour to homes around the world. This book, with its specific instructions on rearing, caring for and training the breed, proves to be a welcome addition to the libraries of pet owners and long-time Tibetan Terrier fanciers alike. Written by one of the world’s leading authorities on Tibetan breeds, Juliette Cunliffe, a prolific author who has frequently visited the Tibetan Terrier’s homeland, this book provides insightful chapters on breed history, characteristics of the breed, the official breed standard as well as puppy selection, grooming, health care and showing. This book combines the expertise of breed specialists, veterinary surgeons, trainers and behaviourists with a team of experienced book designers, photographers and illustrators to create a resourceful and accurate guide for all Tibetan Terrier owners. Illustrated with over 135 colour photographs, the book proves to be as attractive as it is informative. Innovations of modern science have enabled the publisher to present never-before-seen scanning electron micrograph images produced exclusively for this series. Topics discussed include: History of the Tibetan Terrier; Characteristics of the Tibetan Terrier; The Tibetan Terrier Breed Standard; Your Tibetan Terrier puppy; Everyday care of your Tibetan Terrier; Housebreaking and training your Tibetan Terrier; Health care of your Tibetan Terrier; Showing your Tibetan Terrier.

The Tibetan Terrier is an enchanting, hardy, intelligent and active breed that hails from 'The Roof of the World', a mystical country with barren landscape. The country's dogs, like its people, have to be able to deal with extremes of temperature, fiercely bright light and high altitude; the majority of Tibetans live at altitudes of between 3200 and 5000 metres. Over the years, there has been some confusion between the Tibetan Terrier and its close cousin, the Lhasa Apso. This has been due, in part, to the fact that Tibetans refer to all small, and reasonably small, long-coated dogs as 'Apsos'. Indeed, even to this day, the British Museum houses a carefully preserved Lhasa Apso that is still labelled 'Tibetan Terrier'.
