The Tibetan Mastiff
Tibet
The "Roof of the World" is rich in wisdom, treasures and
spirituality.
It is the cradle to sapphire waters, blue poppy meadows,
crystal mountains, the folklore of turquoise snow lions,
and the Land of Snows.
It is the abode to Shambhala. A tranquil haven, a paradise
on earth. The isolated and untouched Shangri-La, Land of
Sacredness and Peace, secreted away in a mountain valley. |

These same images that fire the imagination to mythical proportions
for so many are also home to the Tibetan Mastiff. These noble and
trusted guardians have long watched over their lands of mystery
and legend. And, for some, nothing captures the purity of the untamed
Tibetan Spirit quite like this ancient breed.
Learning about this primitive breed is an on-going process for
newcomers and breeders alike so we invite you to explore the following
informative web pages. We will make available and continually build
upon such items as documented historical references, suggested
readings, articles, pictures, physical descriptions and characteristics,
health issues, links and advice for modern-day caregivers.
