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:
***ADOPTION PENDING***
PLEASE READ THIS PROFILE AND THE REQUESTED CRITERIA BEFORE CALLING OR SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION. THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION AND CONSIDERATION
MEET WINKIE…and yes, he only has one eye….but sees perfectly well with it! Winkie is a sweetheart of a dog, all 8.11 lbs of him! He is tan/white, about 4.5 yrs old and a purebred Shih Tzu!! Petite, sweet and one of the funniest characters ever! Winkie has the energy of a puppy and he never met ANYTHING he didn’t like! He’s a fantastic eater, loves his walks, loves meeting and greeting everyone on the street…especially dogs! He will either kiss them or jump up to give them a hug! He has driven his roommate a little bonkers because he’s always trying to hug him!
Even with his single eye and small size, Winkie is a very confident dog. He doesn’t seem fearful of anyone, anything or any dog, big or little. Because he is so petite, we wouldn’t want to put him with another dog over 20 lbs, but gentle kids over 8 yrs old would be ideal. Plus, Winkie would love a canine playmate to zoom around with — we’ll let him choose! He loves to give kisses and just be your buddy…so we hope he won’t be alone too many hours without you. Very well mannered for the most part and a great “take along” pal. He might need a little refresher course on potty training but uses outside and a potty pad most of the time. Does Winkie sound like a guy you could flirt with and take home forever? **(he has kennel cough but we hope he will recover before adoptions on Sunday)
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!
