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 FENWAY…and even if he had been in Boston, I would have rescued this absolute treasure! Instead, he hailed from the San Bernardino Devore Shelter — one of the worst — and he didn’t look like a Lhasa or anything else! Once groomed, a gorgeous, 3-4 yr old, 17.5 lb, tri colored Lhasa Apso emerged, sweet as can be, which is why I fell in love with this breed. Not only is he a very handsome dude, he is the wonderful dog all Lhasa aficionado want to have as a family member!
Fenway seems a little shell shocked right out of the shelter and switches from being a snuggly, kissy pup to a willful dog who isn’t quite sure where or why you are taking him somewhere. Zero aggression, he just tugs on the leash but settles down quickly. He’s afraid of the car at first, but then rides gently. Great with other dogs, does his business outside — most of the time! No guarantees though! He prances like a show dog and he is very proud of his clean shaven do, now that the foxtails and fleas are all gone. Since his makeover, he has been as very cuddly and affectionate gentleman and he’s ready to become someone’s buddy! However, we have learned that he can be playful mouthy and takes treats like he’s never eaten before…unless you say “gentle” and then he’s a pro!
Ideal home will be a family with kids, he’d be great to come alone to sports events! Parents who are around a lot and can give this pup lots of love and affection, which we believe he has been lacking 🙁 Another dog is not necessary, but leaving him home alone for hours isn’t either 🙂 Fenway does hit the ball out of the park!!
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!
