Beyond the northern boundary of India, where the mighty Mount Everest stands like a guardian sentinel, is the mysterious land of Tibet, a country where conditions are hard on man and beast because of the intense cold and great heat. This is the home of the Lhasa Apso, known in that land as Abso Seng Kye, the “Bark Lion Sentinel Dog”. Small wonder, then, that these members of dogdom should be of such hardy and vigorous constitution.
