Temperament
Tibetan Spaniels are friendly and affectionate dogs that love to be around people. They are known for their loyalty and make great family pets. These dogs are highly intelligent and eager to please, making them easy to train.

Tibetan Spaniels are also good with children and get along well with other pets.
Lifespan
The average lifespan of a Tibetan Spaniel is between 12 to 15 years, which is relatively long for a small breed. However, like any other breed, their lifespan can be influenced by several factors, including genetics, lifestyle, and health.

They are also considered hypoallergenic, making them an excellent choice for people who are allergic to dog hair.
