Summary
About Tibetan Spaniel
Small but sturdy Tibetan companion dog, about 9–15 lb, with a silky double coat, mane-like ruff, and plumed tail. Alert yet not yappy when trained, cat-like in independence, deeply attached to family, good with respectful children, adaptable to city or country with moderate exercise and grooming.
About Kangal Shepherd Dog
Ancient Turkish livestock guardian: large, powerful, calm and observant, deeply loyal to family, reserved with strangers. Needs secure space, early socialisation, firm but fair training, and steady exercise. Best for experienced owners who respect its independence and guarding drive.
