About Lhasa Apso Dogs

Lhasa Apsos are small, confident dogs originally bred as sentinel dogs in Tibetan monasteries and palaces. Their luxurious long coat, which parts at the spine and flows to the floor, is their most striking feature. Despite their glamorous appearance, they are tough, independent dogs.

Adopting a Lhasa Apso brings a loyal, watchful companion who is devoted to their family. They are excellent apartment dogs, good with adults and older children, and have a dignified bearing that belies their playful side. Their long lifespan means many years of companionship.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

42°F to 65°F

Dec – Feb

New Orleans winters are mild and ideal for exploring the city’s parks and neighborhoods with your pet. Audubon Park and the Mississippi River levee offer pleasant walks in comfortable temperatures. Occasional cold fronts bring brief cool spells, but most days are enjoyable for outdoor activities.

Spring

55°F to 80°F

Mar – May

Spring brings warming temperatures and increasing humidity. City Bark dog park and the Lafitte Greenway are great for morning walks before the heat builds. Mosquito activity ramps up as conditions get wetter, reinforcing the need for year-round heartworm prevention.

Summer

75°F to 92°F

Jun – Aug

Hot, humid summers with high humidity mean limiting outdoor activity to early morning and evening. Hurricane season begins in June and requires a solid pet evacuation plan. Year-round mosquitoes are at peak levels, making heartworm prevention absolutely essential.
