In addition, because they are adaptable, small in size, and easy to care for, they have been very popular on Taiwan ever since their introduction here several decades ago--so popular, in fact, that pure Lhasas are now hard to find.
拉薩狗引進台灣，據說已有數十年歷史，由於適應力強、體型適中，很受歡迎。但是，任其繁殖的結果，目前已難得見到純正的品種；養殖界最近曾做計畫性的繁殖，偶有純正的小拉薩狗上市，都很容易就賣出去。另一種八哥犬，據說是荷蘭種，但歐洲人卻又認為它是中國狗。
