Temperament:
I have a two year old little brother and that is the only child they've really ever been around, as far kids and even adults go, I would say the only issue is occasionally when you are taking something out of their mouths otherwise they are loving, playful and always licking and kissing. We have a black lab also and they are submissive around him, I'm not sure how they are around other small dogs. My boyfriend also has a German shepherd and they play well with him in his gated backyard. They have never been around cats.
Training:
They are crate trained, house trained, and our yard is not fenced in so we take them out on leashes to go to the bathroom. They have never had any professional training.
Likes/Dislikes:
They are very playful, especially with one another. They sleep together every night in a crate in my bedroom. They love to wrestle, and chase my little brother around the house. Dakota is a cuddler, and she loves to burrow and hide under blankets. She will also follow you around everywhere. She has been tripped over many times. Dallas is very goofy and playful, he likes to lounge and do his own thing most of the time. Neither of them like the car, they tend to get sick and anxious..probably because they are not in the car often. Dallas can be very skiddish, especially around strangers and some men. They do cry for each other when they are apart.
Size, Age, Breed:
18-21lbs, 4 years old in May, Lhasa Apsos
Some other things.. we usually keep their hair short, they tend to bark when people enter the house but stop after a minute, they are fine being penned off if need be, they're used to the baby gates in my house that are there for my brother. They also love to run around and play outside when we let them off their leash, since we have a large yard we do not have to worry about roads but they do not always come back when called outside.
