Grooming needs

That's not a problem for me as I used to groom dogs and still have all my equipment. I do wonder if I will like the coat care. Would probably keep it shorter most of the time.

That’s good!!! I’ve seen a lot of them shaved or at least trimmed

Someone from my church has one and they said he tries to bite and hates everyone no matter what they've tried. Apparently the females are nicer though.

I never had one try to bite. They mostly would just be uncooperative when I groomed them. Sitting when I wanted them to stand, and always doing the opposite of what I needed.

I used to call them hippies of the dog world as I imagine they are good at laying down and not moving and needing to be dragged off like hippies at a sit in. Probably too old of a reference for the younger people.

They seem animated without being hyper or over reactive. They are said to be one of the more smarter breeds too.

Only groomed one Lhasa apso, and he did have an attitude, but we managed. Those have a longer nose which appeals to me, but you don't see any around anymore. Havanese are more recent. I haven't met any of those.

Ugh I wish I liked grooming. Would be able to have so many wonderful breeds

Hmm that makes sense. And I think they’re technically an older breed but only just got popular recently.

Shave

Shave

A lot of breeds can't be shaved. In addition, they'd be laughed at in a show setting
