A Family Tradition

  Roberto of Saras

Tibetan Mastiffs have been a part of my life from my earliest recollections. As a young man in Northern India, I was able to acquire dogs that were directly from Tibet. The home in exile of His Holiness the Dalai Lama is but a three hour drive from my residence and the border of Tibet is just over 230 miles.

While the TM is hardly a common dog in India , its origins in the Himalayas that form the border between India and Tibet are well known. It is true that over the centuries, the indigenous Tibetan Mastiff found its way into many other lands. Along the way, this breed left its mark on the less ancient molosser breeds as well as on enumerable sub-varieties. In Tibet as well as India and the rest of the world, the ancient forbearers have been preserved and also changed by those who have known, owned, used and loved the Tibetan Mastiff.

My family's history with the Tibetan Mastiff precedes my birth. The earliest photographs of the Thibet dog known to have come from Tibet were taken of dogs owned by my family.

So what then is the Tibetan Mastiff? This breed is best described as impressive, powerful, agile and intelligent. Unlike some giant breeds who have long since lost their agility and longevity, this is a large breed with strength and stamina and a remarkable lifespan. Wary and watchful, they are perfect natural guardians.

The Saras Kennel was founded on our unwillingness to compromise on the basics of preservation of the Tibetan Mastiff in its original form. We breed only those litters which we believe will preserve and improve those qualities that exemplify the Tibetan Mastiff. Our dogs do their work as family and property guardians as naturally as their ancestors did 1000 years ago.

Bred at our home in Amritsar Punjab, our puppies are raised as family companions with our children. We have formed close friendships with premier Tibetan Mastiff breeders throughout the world and Saras dogs continue to be shown around the world on four continents. The judges' comments and awards reflect their appreciation of the total Saras Tibetan Mastiff. Our dogs are placed in some of the most impressive Tibetan Mastiff breeding programs and are producing remarkable results.

Each Saras litter is planned with the objective that the offspring will be placed where they are most likely to be able to continue to make a contribution to the future of this noble breed.
