In the early phase of my acquaintance with the breed of Lhasa apso, I used to lease and show them for others. In years 2005-2012 i had had quite a few of Lhasas visiting my home from abroad for certain period of time. Some stayed for a month or two, some spent a year. I handled random Lhasas at shows too. These dogs came from different bloodlines, different breeders. Not that I ever considered myself a professional handler, but taking in new dogs, getting to know them and their background was my way of learning the deeper of the breed and drawing my own vision. Besides, i was a young girl back then, still studying and living in a small apartment in the city center, so owning several dogs seemed simply impossible. And this turned out to be the most incredible experience you can imagine. I cannot thank enough owners of these wonderful dogs for their trust in me. All of these dogs were  unique personalities and remained in my heart. We had goals and tons of fun finishing their new titles, hunting for first or last CACIB's, winning numerous Best of Breeds,  Groups and even Best in Shows. But most importantly, this was the time I came to realise: I HAVE FOUND "MY BREED".
