The monks called them Little People and believed that they were souls who hadn't QUITE made it to human, this time around. The monk's job was to teach the dog to be human by treating him or her with great respect and love, and the dog's job was to remind the monk that humans are animals too.
I found our Tibetan Terrier ( Tashi) at the Humane society 16 years ago, he's 18, quite old now. There is no better dog breed. He would only bark when someone was at the door, or when I took my son to bed. He has such a quiet, polite temperament- he has been perfect ( he turned the trash over once when he was 6). I have tried to find a dog, in the past couple of years, that Tashi could teach to be civilized, quiet and incredibly loving. I couldn't find one. So, since I can't buy one, Tashi is the last truly great dog that my son and I will have. Thank you for the video - I hope everyone knows what an incredible temperament they have !
12 years that’s how long my TT has blessed our lives. No mistake about it Lucy is my dog and I’m her person. She is as energetic as a puppy, just shorter burst.
Is the Tibetan Terrier your favourite dog breed? Tibetan Spaniel video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1QdVYqI9O7M.html Tibetan Mastiff video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-WvE8KiEdzwA.html
I mean based on my Tibetan Terrier who is very hard to train and very greedy but I still love her I’d say Tibetan Terriers are my second favourite with Huskies on top
Easily the smartest, most personable dog breed I have ever encountered. "Companion" is truly the word at the heart of this breed. They are extremely loyal. Stubborn...uh..yeah. That goes with being smart. They have their own agenda, so you are going to have to learn to negotiate at times. But, in the end, you will get the sweetest, kindest, most loyal, and gentlest of dog breeds. I cannot recommend this breed enough if you are considering a dog.
Thank you so much for this informed, accurate description of a wonderful dog. Do you know anything about a “Tiboodle,” the newest of the poodle hybrid dogs? I am interested in a Tiboodle, although the standard Tibbie could be a good fit for my husband and me, who are both retired. Are you familiar with any reputable breeders of Tibbies? Thank you for any help or guidance you can give me!
Easier than u think..... breeders usually have show champs or breeding dogs that they are "retiring". 2 have been from abusive situations. Most recently just neglectful. They are very easy to train and luv becoming part of a family. Attach quickly to one person and so easy and well- behaved. The best companions and add joy to my life every day!
My Lhasa Apso dog is just like this kind, a little smaller. He is 15+ years old, best watch dog, 100% loyalty, youthful looking. Whole family love his 4 paws- “snow-sled “ so cute but sturdy, walk fast and long without issue. He lives with us too long, he starts begging his needs by talking to us many times daily, I eventually give up my way, fulfill his way.
Your video was great. Here are some other facts. I have owned Tibetan Terriers previously, and now. 1) Tibetan Terriers select their own human from all the other humans. You can't change their chosen companion. 2) Tibetan Terriers are very, very protective. They detect everything that could be a threat to their companion. Please, don't scold. Say, "Good Dog" and move along. 3) Tibetan Terriers learn new tricks almost immediately.
@@Rocadog When it comes to 1) that’s what happened with my Tibetan Terrier. I went to a breeder. I knew I wanted one, but didn’t know which one I wanted. I just knew I wanted a female. There were 8 puppies in the litter. 4 males and 4 females. While I was there I was sitting on the floor and the 8 of them were playing and rough housing together. Then, all of a sudden one of them broke from the rest and pretty much jumped into my arms. Of course I knew that was the dog for me. Ruby died the day after Thanksgiving 2019. She would have been 12 on December 21st. Putting her down was an absolute gut punch because she just had her yearly physical in October and the vet said everything looked good. Then around Thanksgiving she stopped eating and drinking and they told me that she came down with a very aggressive form of lymphoma. I could have done chemo but the best I could hope for was another 6 months. I thought it would be selfish of me to put her through that just so I could maybe keep her for another 6 months. She was a great dog and I still miss her.
