About
breeding and living with our Lhasa Apsos
( FCI - ÖKV - ÖTH )
We are members in
the FCI ( Federation Cynologique Internationale), the ÖKV ( the austrian
cynologique association) and the ÖTH ( austrian club for tibetan
dogs)). We are also members of the hungarian club for dwarf-dogs, the
Lhasa Apso is in Hungary attendet by this club.
Normaly the Lhasa Apso is a accompany dog. ( FCI-Group 9)
Our Lhasa Apsos are for us adequate family members and not decorating or purpose-fulfilling domestic animals. We love and respect our dogs and cannot imagine a life without them. They are for us special creatures, which we do not only love, but also respect. We decided to divide the life with them therefore they are also everywhere integrated and experienced thereby and fully into the family in no regard an exclusion. We have no cages or dog-rooms, the dogs are running in the house and the large garden, whenever they want and are there, were we are.
Nutrition/health:
The readiness on financial restrictions must be given, since an exemplary
dog attitude, nutrition, a care and a breed an expensive thing are. Our
dogs dependent on us humans and we alone carry the responsibility and
have the obligation to provide for a good, long, healthy life of our dogs.
In case of nutrition we make sure that our Lhasa Apsos is weighed out
and fed in correct relationship. Lhasa Apsos are very good fodder-worth
and one may there not necessarily to the packing labels that manufacturing
adhere. Considered and carefully we use only dog food, which does not
contain artificial preservation and additives. With the auxiliary products
we fall back to nature means the increase of the defense forces or healthy
attitude. In case of health we make sure that with our dogs regularly
at least 1 x is accomplished annually with the veterinary surgeon complete
health - a check and the dogs are introduced to the veterinary surgeon
annually at least 2x, if they need in the meantime no physician. As additional
support for bodies, spirit and soul our dogs receive besides still depending
upon need and life situation differently homoeopathic means. If our dogs
need veterinary support,we do not wait, but immediately acted.

Supply during the pregnantness of the
dog:
In pregnantness we let our bitch before mating thoroughly examine by the
veterinary surgeon , so that we can assume surely the dog can through-live
the pregnantness by a good general condition fit and healthy.
Briefly after the birth nut/mother and puppies are examined thoroughly with the veterinary surgeon. Thus we switch already certain risks off, which can be connected with it in the apron. We have therefore a high costing and expenditure of time, in order to ensure responsibly, conscientiously and with love the optimum supply of our animals.
Selection of sire
we high requirements with the selection of the sire place there, proceed
we also in this connection very carefully and well planned. If we found
a sire, it is independent of at which distance it lives. If it corresponds
to our expectations, also the travel abroad does not hold back us. Of
course before expanded investigations (examination of the ancestors with
transmission) take place, with intensive establishment of contact to the
owner, because the sire should recover from, come of to good line (without
genetic and helthy engraving problems) and represent itself with good,
open, safe, friendly nature/character. Thus we regard health and a good
character as priority and very important, afterwards only the appearance
and the beauty, because also a champion dog does not have carry and leave
always a good sire to be, or can also genetically caused disease problems
in its line. Of course also we know that there are no 100 %ige perfection
in the breed, because there is now times organisms and no provided finished
products and we humans are not also error and immaculately. Also a badly
decided combination between the sire and the dam could lead to problems,
which does not show itself unfortunately before to suspect and also later
then only by the new generation, even if the sireand the dam are from
very good quality. Thus the breeder from it learns and it shows him for
the future the fact that this connection did not harmonize well with one
another genetically and was not optimally with each other co-ordinated
(... fit too each other). So the sire in addition, not only the dog cannot
only be made for this responsible in this case. This is only a small view
of the not completely simple breed happening and the correct choice of
the sire. If the sire several descendants from different connections already
witnessed, it is already simpler in the apron to make itself over the
leaving qualities outgoing from the father a picture because then it can
be also examined, from which quality the descendants are, with which nature
they show up and whether them on the whole freely of genetically caused,
serious illnesses are.
Before the birth:
Already during the pregnantness the nut/mother dog receives supporting
homoeopathic means, with it it physically and mentally strengthened for
the again developing situation and birth carefully. It is not during the
day any longer left also days before the birth alone and sleeps at night
with us together.
Briefly after the birth: If it is so far with the birth, and/or already past, the dog and also the puppies with brook blooms (whale groove thereby become it outside of the nut/mother body to their new environment and new life more easily to accustom to be able itself. Possibly also Rescue as protection from a possibly developing shock condition) and homoeopathic means supplies. After 1 - 3 days visits us our veterinary, in order to examine nut/mother and puppy thoroughly.
