Fun Fact
The Tibetan Terrier has existed for at least 2,000 years. The Tibetan Terrier belongs to the non-sporting group and is not related to the true terriers. The Tibetan Terrier was bred to be a companion animal, not a working dog. The Tibetan Terrier came from a region of Tibet known as the “Lost Valley,” so-named because an earthquake destroyed the major road that allowed access to the valley in the 14th century.
