Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
I found a new home! Plenty of my friends are looking for one too. Check out other pets at this shelter, or start a new search.

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 NIBBLET! This petite morsel of love is a charcoal/white, 8 lb, very underweight, 6 yr old (acts like a younger dog) Shih Tzu mix, who came from the Carson Shelter. She has the absolute cutest tiny face compared to her long legs, uncommon for a Tzu. We’re not sure what her mix might be, but her coat is very soft and she doesn’t shed! She was adopted and returned in a few days because she was coughing. Their loss, your gain!
The first thing we did when we got home was put a bowl of kibble down for Nibblet to snack on, turned my head and in 2 minutes flat, it was empty! This poor little waif was hungry! She has the cutest little mannerisms, it is fun to watch her, especially when she gets really excited. She loves people, to be caressed, cuddled, and she is good with everyone she meets! She definitely wants another dog at home to play and bond with, as she often has the energy of a 2 yr old ….without the “terrible twos” — just a lot of love! She doesn’t like being left alone, so that is why another dog would be ideal for her. She is probably okay with older kids who are gentle and respectful! She is pp pad trained and does go outside, but prefers the pad.
The ideal home for Nibblet would be one where there are humans and dogs to entertain her. She hasn’t started to play with toys, but she came to us with kennel cough and so she is a bit under the weather. We can tell you that she is a savant when it comes to finding pills in tasty food and refuses to oblige! BUT…the chewable ones she thinks are candy!! She is getting better each day but unfortunately she has not fully recovered but we hope she will be at our next event on June 25 .
Nibblet is a keeper and she will make any home a happy one.
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
If you are interested in adopting a pup from Lhasa Happy Homes, please complete the Adoption Application before calling. We will contact you once it has been reviewed.
Lhasa Happy Homes will be now holding our adoption events the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month on Main Street in Santa Monica (check calendar link below for special events and directions). Our event is located at 2116 Main Street, in Santa Monica, CA. Here you will have an opportunity to interact with the dogs and see which might be a perfect fit with your household. Main Street is famous for its innovative shops and is close to the beach! Make a day of it!! Metered parking on the street and free parking on 4th and Bicknell Streets.
Here you will have an opportunity to interact with the dogs and see which might be a perfect fit with your household....and do some fantastic shopping at the same time! 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 pictures or video of your home and yard if we have not done a home check (preferred)! 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!
Don't forget to check out our Events Calendar for more information on upcoming events!
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.
