Tibetan Mastiff Information
The Tibetan Mastiff placed in Westminster KC Working Group in Feb 2009. The enormous but stately Tibetan Mastiff set a record for newly AKC recognized "rare breeds" which will be hard to top.The Tibetan Mastiff In China© TheDogPlace June 29, 2009
We present Part 1 of a three part pictorial series direct from Lana Tsan a Science and Advisory Board member who lived in China. She travels the world seeking and sharing information on dogs.
The Tibetan Mastiff is a working dog with unique type, elegance and nobility. This dog captured my heart many years ago and I would like to pull open the silk curtain on the Tibetan mastiff and share with you. Most of you may not have a chance to see this breed in China. I also regularly have Chinese dog breeders in groups who would come over to see this dog and dog shows in China.
And dogs are not allowed to travel and people could not gather for shows in the Olympic cities and surrounding area. All police security is concentrated to Olympic cities.
The first show is the first stop in Imperial Capital Stadium, a stadium reserved for dog show event only in Beijing but has since been taken down to be replace by Bus station for Olympics.
Visitors to China dog show included Belgium, England, South Africa, Canada and all over USA.
In Qinhai there is a museum of fossils of many dinosaur with also dog skulls fossils for over 10,000 years. The size is from Chihuahua size skull to skull bigger than Mr Wong’s torso.
This museum is not in any usual tourist route and is about a day by car from Lanzhou, the place we just visited in May for dog show and also visiting Tibetan mastiff kennels there.
One of the skull fossil cases on display in the museum. But not the largest.
These are two of the rock fossils on display. They are the biggest skulls.

In 2006 in the Kumming show. The same show that Jane Roppolo judged.
On right, we have Skip the other judge in Tibetan costume judging the breed. The thing on his shoulder is real leopard skin.
