Frequently Asked Questions
Where does the Tibetan Kyi Apso come from?
It is an ancient, rare landrace guardian dog of the high Tibetan Plateau, traditionally found near Mount Kailash and bred to protect flocks and homes. A close relative of the Tibetan Mastiff, it was unknown to the West until 1937 and only reached breeders abroad in the 1990s. Tibetan picks like Zen, Karma, Buddha, and Lotus suit its heritage.
How is the Kyi Apso different from a Tibetan Mastiff?
The Kyi Apso is lighter and shaggier, with a bearded muzzle and no heavy dewlaps, long hairy ears, longer legs, a leaner body and a fully curled tail. It is most often black, sometimes with a white chest, though greys, browns, reds, golden and white are all seen.
What names suit a Tibetan Kyi Apso?
Its dark shaggy coat suits Onyx, Jet, Shadow, Raven, and Ebony, while a teddy-bear of a dog wears Bear, Teddy, Simba, and Fluffy. Warm markings suit Rusty, Copper, Ginger, and Goldie, and its watchful nature suits Spirit, Mystic, and Lucky.
