My story

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 LITTLE LUCAS….a 2 yr old, 8 lb, white/tan Maltipoo as best as we can determine! He’s bald now, because he was so matted, you couldn’t get a comb through his hair, but Pic #4 shows you what his coat looks like. He may be bald now…but those of you who love a soft, curly coat, when he grows out, if you take care of it…he will be even cuter than he currently is! When Lucas arrived, he was shy and a little reserved…wasn’t quite sure why he was with me. He came from the Orange County Shelter, and they had cut some of the matts out. We took him to be groomed because those left had to be painful and as soon as he came home…IS THAT THE SAME DOG? Lucas had found his energy, personality, voice and was shy no more!! It’s actually hard to keep him still, except if you are holding him getting your face washed by his tongue! He’s just a youngin’ but he does settle down. Lucas is the kind of pocket pooch you will want to take with you everywhere. He seems to have separation anxiety, so we want to place him in a home where there is someone around most of the time. For this reason, we don’t think apartment living would suit him/you because he will bark for about a half hour after you leave but finally settles down. He will need a little work on his potty training, because we believe he was likely kept as an outside dog (typing that even makes me angry) by the condition of his coat. He will go on the sidewalk when you least expect it. That being said, he has started using the pp pads and is getting better and better knowing where the bathroom is!

Lucas is friendly with everyone — even strangers on the street both dog and human. He will kiss you ’til the cows come home and just loves being a part of the conversation! He likes to chase after toys but we don’t think he’s had much experience with them. Kids over 8 yrs old would be welcome! He is young and under foot, so please keep that in mind when applying. Can Lucas come home with you??

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!

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.
