3 Dogs and 2 Cats

Keep in mind that owning a dog is a big responsibility but it’s all worth it.  It’s important to choose the right veternarian for your dog.  Regular check-ups and a good exercise routine is key to raising a happy healthy dog.

They always need fresh water and a nutritious dog formula.  You can learn how to read the labels and find out what to look for and what to stay away from.  Your Vet will also have good advice on what kind of food is right for your little friend.

Your dog should wear a ID tag at all times just incase they slip away from you.  I have found dogs in the past and luckily they were wearing a tag and I was able to return them to their owner within minutes.

Long Haired cats are known for their beauty and long silky coats.  They are more high maintenance then a short hair cat but it’s all worth it.  The Angora was the first long haired cat breed discovered.  They originated in Europe in the 16th Century.  The Angora was named after a Turkish city called Angora.

Many long haired cats are known for their sweet dispositions.  They tend to be very passive so they do best as indoor cats and that protects them from any predators on the outside.

Grooming your long haired cat can be somewhat of a labor intensive experience.  As you know, most cats don’t like to be messed with especially when it comes to getting wet.  It’s good to know that long haired cats don’t shed anymore than short haired cats.  The long haired cat breeds have such a long coat which makes it almost impossible to properly clean themselves, that’s where you come in.  They need to be brushed almost every day or they may end up with matted fur and that’s no fun for either one of you, trust me.

The Long Hair cat breed exists in a wide variety of shapes, colors, sizes and breeds.  Here are a few long haired cat breeds:

• Norwegian Forest Cat
• Turkish Van
• Persian
• Javanese
• Birman
• Ragdoll
• Cymric
• Somali
• Turkish Angora
• Maine Coon

All of these long haired cats have different characteristics and origins.  They all have something unique about them and are friendly and social breeds.  One of the characteristics they do have in common is that they all have a beautiful long coat.

The Lhasa Apso breed is in the non-sporting breed group.  They are more of an indoor dog.  They love to play games and become quite playful when doing so.  The Lhasa Apso is known to be one of the most affectionate breeds and this is why they make such great companions.  

They are very devoted and loyal to their loved ones but are very stubborn and want everything their way.  They have a heightened sense of hearing so they do make a great watch dog.  They do prefer being the only pet and demand lots of attention, as much as they can get.   The Lhasa Apso dogs  don’t like being left alone for long periods of time and will let you know it.  They do bite if frightened or angered so they aren’t the best dogs for children. 

The Lhasa Apso needs to be brushed daily to avoid any matting or tangling of the hair.  They need to be bathed on a regular basis and routine check-ups are neccesary as they tend to have eye and ear problems if not properly cared for.   The Lhasa Apso breed is great for people that live in apartments or condos since they love indoor activity.
