Because of the reincarnation theory of Lhasa Apsos and the level at which they are revered, they were not ever sold in the past. They were gifted on multiple occasions, which is the only way the breed spread across continents and oceans. While Lhasa Apsos are sold in other parts of the world, Tibetan Lhasas remain sacred.
Lhasa Apso dogs are relatively popular as show dogs. In fact, a Lhasa Apso was the winner of the non-sporting group in the 2018 National Dog Show. The purchase of a Lhasa bred to be in shows can run you as much as $5000, despite the fact that show dogs do not earn money from the hobby.
Because of the minimal need to be outside or to burn off energy, the Lhasa Apso breed is wonderful for life in an apartment. The dog doesn’t take up much space and will likely pick one spot to spend much of their time – likely near a window. The only possible concern with a Lhasa Apso in an apartment would be bothering the neighbors with barking.
