Here's what the humans have to say about me:
PLEASE READ THE INFORMATION BELOW THOROUGHLY
____________________
My name is Juan Carlos. I am a 7.5yr old Lhasa Apso and I weigh about 28 pounds.
I recently lost my human family that I had lived with since I was about 8 weeks old and came to be with my friends at The Animal League. Upon arrival, they gave me lots and lots of love and attention, which I love! While here, I started to not feel well and not able to go potty. I was rushed to the vet and it was found that I had bladder stones and I had emergency surgery to remove them. I am all better now and am back to my ol’ self!
I would do best in a patient and quieter home, preferably with no small children. I would love a fenced yard that I can wander around in and take in all the fresh air.
So that I don’t make any more bladder stones and need surgery again, I am on special food that I will need to be on for the rest of my life. Good thing I really like my food! I will also need a diligent family that will take me to the doctor regularly and make sure that I am doing okay. I really don’t want surgery again, boy was that scary!
NOTE: we CANNOT email information about fees. View our GENERAL fees here (you will need to copy/paste into your browser): https://theanimalleague.org/adoption-fees/
All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, receive a registered microchip, and are up-to-date on their age-appropriate shots, vaccines, and preventative care. We also test for heartworm when they are old enough.
Please visit https://theanimalleague.org/faqs/ for the answers to our most commonly asked questions such as, "what are your fees," "when can I visit," and "what is your adoption process."
IMPORTANT: THE BEST WAY TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THIS PET IS TO FILL OUT OUR NO OBLIGATION, NO FEE ADOPTION APPLICATION. WE CAN NOT ALWAYS ANSWER GENERAL EMAIL INQUIRIES AND CALLS.
We are volunteer based and taking care of injured, neglected pets is our priority, if you have not heard back from us within a week of applying, this pet had a best match application ahead of yours.
We will keep your application on file for 6 months in case you see another pet of interest.
If you do see another pet of interest, email us (when you fill out an adoption application you will receive an email contact) to tell us you would like your application applied to that pet.
Thank you for your understanding! We always welcome new volunteers!
