Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Catherine Marley. I have been breeding and exhibiting Lhasas for 30 years. I work closely, and visit frequently, with breeders in France, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Denmark, so I have some European perspective as well as the local (USA) one. I am a Physician, and have published many articles on Lhasas over the past 25 years. I am a member of the Danish Lhasa Apso Club, the Lhasa Apso Club of Canada, and the American Lhasa Apso Club.

To new Lhasa Apso aficionados, I hope that this page will provide you with information and assistance. I am always available to answer your Lhasa questions by E-Mail or to refer you to other reputable breeders in your area. Please feel free to join the International Forum if you have anything you would like to share with other friends of the Lhasa Apso.

To seasoned Lhasa Apso lovers everywhere, I hope the International Forum will encourage sharing of information and exchange of ideas. Let everyone know about new dogs, wins, opinions, news, concerns etc. Meet new friends via E-Mail links. And please let me know if there is anything you think would help improve this page. Enjoy.

For those wishing to join a discussion group about the Lhasa Apso we have the Apso List.  Anyone can join,  but you should know that this is not a "chat" list, but one devoted to serious topics including health, genetics, training, history, conformation, and exhibition.   To join, click this link: ApsoList or http://groups.yahoo.com/group/apso/
