Our adoption fees vary. Each biography will specifically list the adoption fee.Adoption fee: $800 Sloppy Joe is a 10-12 month old Havanese-Lhasa who was surrendered to our organization when his owner could no longer care for him. He weighs 12.9 lbs and has a non-shedding coat that makes him an option for those with allergies. He will require regular grooming. SJ was a bit timid when he first arrived, but he's doing really well in his foster home!  Sloppy Joe is very happy to wake up when his people do, patiently looking forward to pets and snuggles. He then immediately enjoys some breakfast and water and loves to take a quick trip outside to do some business. He is happy to stay near his people all day while playing with his toys and getting pets whenever possible. He follows his people while they cook or clean and sits by them when they are working. He is a people person! Then in the evening he enjoys some time walking outside with his human. His favorite place to sleep is at the foot of the bed. Sloppy Joe is very friendly and well mannered with other dogs he meets out on a walk. He is very interested in cats though they may not be interested in him. If they run, he has a hard time not playing a game of chase with them. With careful on leash interactions, he gets along well with friendly cats. Shy cats may be a little more of a challenge. SJ didn't seem familiar with leash-walking when he first arrived, but now he loves it and trots along like a little gentleman, no pulling. He is very good at doing his business on puppy pads but has not learned to only go outside yet. He is currently getting treats whenever he goes potty outside to help him learn. He has adjusted well to his crate and no longer barks or cries inside. SJ is very eager to please. He tries to be obedient when he understands what is being asked of him. Anyone who has a lot of love and a little patience will really love having this cute little shadow follow them around all day and be so happy every time they enter a room. Sloppy Joe is looking for a patient home that will continue the great training that his foster is working on. He is only an option for those with prior dog experience. He could be an option for kids over the age of 6, provided they are gentle.January 28, 2025, 5:45 pm
