Lhasa Apso

            Taken on the beach at Great Yarmouth in Norfolk.

The Lhasa Apso is a thousand year old breed, originating in Tibet, where they were traditionally used as an interior watchdog at palaces and monasteries isolated high in the Himalayas.
In the early 20th. century some Tibetan dogs were brought to the United Kingdom by military men returning from the Indian subcontinent. These were of mixed types, similar either to what would become the Lhasa Apso or to what would become the Tibetan Terrier; they were collectively known as 'Lhasa Terrier'.
The original American pair of Lhasa's were a gift from Thubten Gyatso, 13th. Dalai Lama to Charles Suydam Cutting, who had travelled to Tibet and met the Dalai Lama. The dogs arriving in the United States in 1933,when at the time, there was only one Lhasa Apso registered in England.
The American Kennel Club officially accepted the breed in 1935 in the Terrier Group, and in 1959 transferred the breed to the Non-Sporting Group. In the UK, they are placed in the Utility Group.
