Geocache Description:

Part of the 300 Dog Series by meandmydogs. We picked the Lhaso Apso because that was the last dog that we had. He was a good dog and we miss him alot.
This cache is dedicated to all of the canines out there.

Description
The Lhasa Apso has a long, heavy, double coat, draping over his entire body to the floor. This shaggy little dog looks like a small version of the Old English Sheepdog. Gold, cream, and honey are the most popular colors, but the coat also comes in smoke, dark-grizzle, slate and a multi-color assortment of brown, white & black. It is common for a Lhasa Apso puppy's coat to change colors as it grows. The coat is straight, hard and heavy, but not silky. The hair should cascade from the head over its eyes. It should have a dark beard and mustache, and a muzzle that is medium-length, but not square. It has small, dark, deep-set eyes and heavy feathered ears. Its neck has an abundant scarf of hair and its tail is feathered and carried over its back.

Temperament
This is a hardy dog with a friendly, assertive, manner. Intelligent and lively, it makes a good pet, but it is naturally suspicious of strangers. Lhasa Apsos are spirited and devoted. These little dogs are affectionate with their masters, but they will not tolerate rough or badly behaved children. Some are willful and some are very obedient to their masters. This breed responds to motivational training. It should have a dominant owner. They are good watchdogs with a loud, persistent bark, which gives the impression to intruders of a much larger dog. The breed can be noisy and may be too nervous around children and strangers. They are inclined to fight if they are not the only dog in the house. They have a fine sense of hearing. These little dogs travel well . Lhasa Apso bitches make good mothers. They dislike being alone and can be snappish if surprised or peeved.

We would like the FTF to be a pooch or a pooch and an owner. There is a special prize for "the pooch" in the cache. The prize is a stuffed doggie and a treat for the pooch. I would like to also post a picture of the FTF pooch with the cache infront of the cache site. So please bring a camera and post a picture.

Other items in the cache are a bunch of dog toys and dog related items. Please keep all trades dog related.

The cache to us is named the
"Big Bad Bouncing Bandit" Cache.
Yes that was his registered name.

When he was a wee pup he use to bounce around a lot, so that is how he got his name.


The cache was a green ammo container placed within the downed trees BUT it got muggled. Now it is a plastic container in the base of a tree. I am only stating this because of the high muggle factor when these fields are in use. Please be stealty as to not comprimise the cache site. It would be best to be in a group if muggle factor is high. Also obey park hours.
