My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

PLEASE READ THIS PROFILE AND THE REQUESTED CRITERIA BEFORE CALLING OR SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION. THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION AND CONSIDERATION

MEET HUNTER.....and he'll hunt for you lap until he finds it and sit there for hours!! This handsome, 16 lb, 5 yr old, tri colored, thick coated, lovable Lhasa mix is a looker! Maybe that is why he was used as a stud with a backyard breeder in San Bernardino where he came from. His owner dumped him in the shelter with his "wife" -- who was taken by another rescue with her 4 puppies...and one of their sons, Kaden, who he tried to dominate a little too much. But Hunter is a happy boy...loves to be with his person, great on a walk, however, the Lhasa sometimes does come out in him and he might bark at strangers. He's a protective kind of guy...but not a biter! There isn't an aggressive bone in him. When it comes to his bones, chewies and stuff, he can be a little possessive, but he does listen to correction. He wants to please...he wants to be rewarded for his good behavior. Hunter never met a bush, tree, wall or plant he didn't like! He does his business outside but he might mark in the house when he first arrives. He just needs to be shown the ropes and will do best in a home where he has access to outside. One thing we learned about Hunter....he does NOT like cats....just a little too interested! We believe he could go into a home with or without another dog...he is not a barker and is very affectionate....as long as he has a human companion, he's happy! Either way, this dog deserves the kind of love he should have been getting all his life. He is a furry cuddle bug and a lover... a wonderful companion!!

Our website is updated daily. Please do not apply for this dog unless your home fits the specified criteria. All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, microchipped, groomed, vet checked, dewormed, deflea'd and come with a leash, collar and ID tag!

If you are interested in adopting a pup from Lhasa Happy Homes, please complete the Adoption Application before calling. We want to give you the time you deserve, so please help us help you!! We will contact you once it has been reviewed.

Most Sundays, unless we are doing a special event, we are at My Pet Naturally (12001 W. Pico Blvd., West LA 90064) from 11a-3:30pm. You can see this, and many more, adorable pups at this weekly event! Please do call us if you are coming to see a particular dog to make sure he/she will be at adoptions (we do not bring sick dogs to our adoption events). Please bring a copy of your application and pictures of your home and yard if we have not done a home check! Most importantly, if you have a dog, make sure you bring him or her to do a compatibility match with the dog you are interested in adopting!!! And don't forget to check out our Events Calendar for more information on events we may be doing! See our home page for more details about our adoptions at Lhasa Happy Homes.

Thanks for thinking rescue and adoption....and for considering saving a life. It will be the best gift you ever give yourself or your family.
