Summary
About Lhasa Apso
Small but sturdy Tibetan companion once kept as an indoor watchdog. Rectangular body, dense floor‑length coat with many colors, low shedding but high grooming needs. Loyal and protective with family, reserved with strangers, alert and vocal. Suits apartments if well trained and exercised.
About Halden Hound (Haldenstøver)
The Halden Hound is a rare Norwegian scenthound, medium-sized, athletic and robust, bred to hunt hare in cold, snowy terrain. Calm and affectionate at home but driven in the field, it has a short white coat with black and tan markings, low grooming needs, and high exercise demands.
