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 BANJO….and he will bring a song to your heart! This youngin’ is a 15 lb, cream w/ silver tips, under 2 yr old, Lhasa Bichon, as best as we can guess, is a doll! He came to us from the South Central Shelter crusted with skin, ear and eye infections…not to mention he was a filthy mess. A bath, some magical cream and antibiotics…a grooming and Banjo is ready to play music for you all the way home!
Don’t let his calm appearance fool you! Banjo will surprise you with his longing to go for long walks, hikes or visits to the park. Young small dogs are NOT COUCH POTATOES! Banjo loves to play with you…and other dogs who want to play with him! While we can’t guarantee he is potty trained, we can tell you that he does not lift his leg! He will only go on a pp pad if he can’t get out…but we want him to go to a home where he will get exercised and have playdates if he doesn’t have another dog at home. We can tell you that he DOES NOT LIKE being left alone and you might just hear him singing (howling even!) if you leave him without company!
Banjo is interested in toys, but his foster roommate doesn’t give him a chance to get the ball or toy first! Ideally, Banjo will have a home with a yard, maybe kids over 5 yrs old and another dog! He would be the happiest camper! He is very social and really seems to enjoy children. He would be wonderful to take to sports games, brunch or wherever he is allowed to go with you. That being said, he can be extremely active when you leash him (excited to be going)! Do you need some happy music in your heart and a cuddlebug to show you his appreciation for loving him? He’s waiting.
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.
