Here are some more information for Old Tibet Tibetan:
In Tibet, Tibetean mastiffs had been considered sacred for many years.
Their large bodies, large heads and long hair make them look very much like a lion and they can be just as dangerous as one. Tibetan mastiffs are strong and aggressive dogs if trained to become so.
Tibetan mastiffs are the greatest herds guard dogs and are also believed to be great predictors of earthquakes.
The Tibetan mastiffs are a loyal breed of dogs. They are not born aggressive even though they have the body and strength to become very dangerous if trained this way.
Tibetans have been training them for centuries to become effective in herd guarding. Tibetans have been growing herd animals through the ages. The greatest enemy of their herds has always been the wolf, so they have trained their mastiffs to fight of wolves.
Training mastiffs to be "wolf killers" involves not feeding them enough, exposing them to harsh weather, keeping them hungry, tired and frustrated. Growing a mastiff in such cruel conditions cause him to become vicious, angry, bitter and extremely dangerous.
This cruel training continues when the dog is taken out to the wilderness to be placed in a dry well and fed only a few pieces of raw meet per day. The wild animals, especially the wolves smelling the meet would come and steal their food, but after a short while the Mastiff would start using his strength and anger to fight them.
All the bitterness turns into aggressiveness and cruelty as the mastiff finally attacks the wolf, fighting for his food.
Throughout this process up till this point the Tibetan mastiff are being kept in solitude, with no other dogs around.
Once he is released into a group of mastiffs, they acknowledge him as a stranger and attack him. The poor mastiff has to fight for his life. He learns that the only way to survive, eat and not be killed is to fight.
In order to emphasize it, Tibetan trainers used to start feeding the mastiff pieces of raw wolf's meat when he very hungry, so he acquires the taste and begins to connect the taste of wolf meat with being fed and surviving. This method of training makes the wolf become a natural enemy of the mastiff.
Wolfs are the biggest threat for herding animals in Tibet. This has been a good reason to train the mastiffs to hate wolves and by that become the most efficient, fierce herd guardian.
Tibetan mastiffs have been breed with other kinds of dogs, so pure breed Tibetan mastiffs are rare these days.
Generally, mastiffs are very loyal to their owners but very dangerous to strangers. The training process described above is not being used very often any more, which makes me, for one, very happy.
This beautiful breed of dogs deserves a pampering way of life. Living in a caring home and having a loving family they grow to become gentle giants that would still make excellent guardian dogs for their families and their environment.

Tibetan Spaniel Puppy And Dog Information
The Tibetan Spaniel is a happy little dog that is protective with her family. They can be kept in an apartment as long as they can get frequent walks. A properly fenced in yard is best for exercise. Most individuals are very good with other dogs and pets. It is said that they are very good with children, especially older, calm children. As a reminder, never leave a child unsupervised with a puppy or dog.
*Approximate Adult Size. The approximate adult size (two years old or older) of the Tibetan Spaniel is 10 inches to the withers (highest point of the shoulder) and 9 to 15 pounds.
*Special Health Considerations. Most dog breeds have certain inherited health problems associated with that specific breed and the Tibetan Spaniel is no exception. Although considered a healthy breed, be on the look out for kidney disease, progressive retinal atrophy and respiratory problems. This disease list is an informative guideline only. Other diseases may also be significant threats, please contact your veterinarian for a complete list.
She should visit the veterinarian several times in the first year for shots, boosters and check up. Then, as an adult, she should visit the veterinarian yearly for shots and check up. As she gets older, six years and on, she should visit the veterinarian twice a year for check ups and shots. Remember; avoid feeding your dog sweets.
*Grooming. The Tibetan Spaniel has a double coat, of moderate length and silky in feel. Some shed heavily once a year. She should be brushed regularly. Brushing will help her maintain a clean and healthy coat, avoid mats, help you keep a closer eye on her health and strengthen your emotional bond with her.
Her ears should be checked once a week and be kept clean. If you have her professionally groomed, make sure ear cleaning and inspection is part of the package. No water or excess fluid should get in the dogs ears, and do not try to irrigate the ears. Ear cleaning is too complicated and critical to instruct here. Look for hair growing in the ear canal, excess wax, or moisture. If her ears have a discharge, foul odor or she seems to be in distress and you suspect an infection, or tumor, consult your veterinarian.
Her teeth should be brushed at least twice a week with toothpaste and toothbrush designed for dogs. Brushing removes the accumulation of plaque and tartar which can cause cavities (rarely) and periodontal disease. Dog periodontal disease can lead to pain, loss of teeth, bad breath and other serious disease.
Her toenails may need to be examined for growth and clipped regularly. The toenails of the rear feet grow slower than the toenails of the front feet.

Why do Buddhists idealize the old Tibetan regime that was based on torture and slavery?
Where did the myth of "sweet peaceful Tibet before the Chinese took over" come from?
Why do non-Buddhist westerners accept it too?
Check out this essay -- http://www.michaelparenti.org/Tibet.html
Well, it's pretty clear that no one read the essay.
And for those who think I'm a Christian -- I'm an ATHEIST.
Ever heard of the firestorms over German cities that massacred millions? Or the privations in the South during the U.S. Reconstruction?
No one ever said that liberation was painless or bloodless.
In SPITE of their brutalities, I think the Chinese Stalinists LIBERATED Tibet.
Um....Not all Buddhist are Tibetan and many do not idolize it.
Now then about that article, you have to remember that the history of Tibet is not well known even in Tibet. The country has been passed around from country to country and invaded so many times that its no wonder it has so much internal conflict. ut that is the country not Buddhism.
Rights group: China used force at Tibetan protests
Chinese security forces fired indiscriminately on Tibetan protesters in 2008 and beat and kicked others until they lay motionless on the ground, a rights group said in a report citing witnesses to clashes in which the government claims it acted with restraint.
