Welcome to Sang-po dawa homepage, the home of tibetan terriers since 1990!!

 

 

Sang-po dawa means »the one that brings the light and takens the darkness away"  .Our dogs are bringing the light into our home for already two decades.

Our dogs are part of our lifes, they are involved in practically everything except of our jobs.   Of course they live with us inside of our house  and outside they have a huge green garden with fence to play. Our journey began in 1990 when we brought our first tibetan terrier, beautiful female, four years later we brought from the Netherlands another tibetan terrier, a beautiful black male. We started to visit dogshows, we participate at club meetings, but most of it, we went together with dogs on trips, on holidays and we were looking forward to every single free moment we could, to free our minds and to go to walk along the hills, fields or some nearby pastur and enjoy the freedom of our nature. Makoa and Gorin knew exactly what to do to steal our hearts.
It did not take long and we were affected by a  TT virus like many other breeders. We increased our family with more TTs.  Unfortunately our first two tibetans (Makoa & Gorin) are not alive anymore, but they live in our hearts and memories and they always will.
With this two dogs I have realised the beauty of tibetan terrier, not just their appearance which is decorated withthe beauty of  lush long hair but specialy the character. Character for which this dogs are called  "little people"  If you let the TT to live, breath and to feel with you, you will know exactly why they are called so. Together we are going on trips to the sea, lakes the mountains, but when visiting the exhibition, they turn into real beautiful show dogs.

Our kennel is registered by FCI  and our puppies are raised only with pedigree!  All of our breeding dogs have breeding permissions,  are hip scored, eyes are checked regularly,  also patellas and all of our dogs are ccl DNA tested!!  This was the essence of our breeding. Breed typical and  especially genetically healthy TTs and place them into good and friendly homes. We do not choose the sires in relation to geographical distance. If we like the stud that lives 1000 miles away, we will use him.

Our puppies go into new homes at age of 9 weeks, if needed also later, but this is not last goodbye for us. We sure want to keep the contact with the new owners and we are happy of every new photo of the dog that we get.
Puppies are raised in a home atmosphere with the  maximal possible  socialization and with contact with people of all ages and with our adult dogs.  They learn how to live with the people together in living room and they know how the grass feels under their paws!!  Before leaving, all puppies are dewormed, vaccinated and tattooed into the left ear. (in our county we still have to tatoo puppies).

We regularly visit traditional club meetings, consultations with the breeders, seminars, and if time allows us also Tibetan Terrier world congress.

After so many years of experience with the breed I still can observe the differences of their individual nature but there is still something common to all of them: they are loyal companion, who demands responsibility and they have to be treated with respect. They give you what you give to them, so you better be a good, loving and responsible owner.

Fot the end let me summerize the words of one cynolog who once said:«

Dog is the oldest and most loyal partner of humanity. We keep, breed, teach, and love them, because our life is more happy, more colorful and richer with them«.

We are member of FCI,  Tibetan Breeds Club of Slovenia, member of Austrian club for Tibetan breeds: «Osterreichischer Klub fur Tibetische Hunderassen« and a member of german club: " Internationaler Klub fur Tibetische Hunderassen"
