Welcome back! I was thinking of you the other day, there was a show on Animal Planet about a retired champion show tibetan spaniel and they really are beautiful dogs, just like you say! I love them! I can see how you are so taken by the breed, with that beautiful appearance, hight trainability, and that wonderful temperment it sounds like such a perfect animal. On the link you posted I saw this pic and just melted.

again welcome back, glad you posted that link, I really like tibbies
