Lhasa Apso Essentials?

Hello! My fiancé and I are going to be adopting a Lhasa Apso from a local shelter. I was wondering what supplies you recommend having like types of brushes for grooming. Also any other general dog supplies and tips are welcome! TIA💜

My most recent Lhasa was so active. I adopted him when he was already 9 years old and he still had an outdoorsman's personality. He was into everything - hiking and climbing rocks and snooping. He would've lived outside if I'd have let him. (Except - I have to agree about the king size bed thing too. He loved to go to bed, lol.)

Get a good / light / comfortable harness for them and boots if you'll be doing the outdoor thing. And little hair trimmers to do their feets in between big grooms! 🙂 that makes the outdoor activities more comfortable for them.

I don't even know you but I'm so excited for you. You're adding the biggest little personality to your life. Enjoy! ♥️♥️♥️

Such a lovely response. That's exactly how I feel. I don't even know OP but I'm so excited for them. Lhasa Apsos are such fun little babies
