Introducing our puppy Coco for today’s theme ~Woof Wednesday.
I thought since this is my first woof Wednesday topic, I should first talk about my puppy Coco, a lhasa apso male dog, purebred ~20months old who still acts like a 2month old puppy.Whoever said you can’t buy happiness forgot little puppies.

We didnt know what type of a dog to get when we were looking for a puppy.We knew we wanted a small dog, but which kind/breed? So we started researching about small breeds, and came across this breed, Lhasa Apso~a non-sporting dog breed originating in Tibet. It was bred as an interior sentinel in the Buddhist monasteries, who alerted the monks to any intruders who entered. Lhasa is the capital city of Tibet and apso is a word in the Tibetan language meaning “bearded,” so Lhasa Apso simply means “long-haired Tibetan dog.

Lhasa Apso is a loyal dog, who while not be a traditional lapdog, is a steadfast sweet, happy, active, assertive, adventurous little companion dog whose only desire is to be with and protect their owners.After researching, we knew this is the right kind for us!One night after searching the internet for hours and hours, I saw this cute little lhasa apso puppy just staring at me saying “Get me,get me,get me”. That minute I saw his cute face, I told my husband , I think this is the one. We called the number, and YES, he was available.

The next day my husband and I drove for two hours to go get him, and we became new dog owners~ he was ours to keep? I couldn’t believe it, I was beyond happy,I was ecstatic~ we named him CoCo (short for coconut for his white and brown markings,a lot of fur and that he was sweet as a coconut).Coco is full of personality,a wonderful dog, fun, loving and a great watchdog.He is our JOY.
