My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Ben's adoption fee is $375.

Our fun loving Ben is about 2 years old. We believe he is a Lhasa Apso/Coton du Tulear mix. He is neutered, micro chipped and up to date with vaccines. Ben came to us underweight and with Cherry eye in both eyes (this is a condition where the tear gland in the third eyelid slips out of place). Ben has had this surgically repaired and has recovered well. He has gained 3 lbs (he now weighs about 19 pounds) and is in great shape with awesome muscle tone and energy. He’s such a happy boy, and would do well with an active family or someone who walks or runs regularly. He is also a cuddly guy who soaks up affection whenever he can, and he loves playing with the other dogs in his foster home. Ben is crate trained when needed.

Ben needed to be shaved done to the skin when he came to us as he was matted so badly. He will have a beautiful full coat of white fluff when it has grown in. He will need regular brushing and a grooming every few months. The groomer said he was perfect to groom. We believe he is a low shedding dog.

He is now mostly house trained (we recommend a home with easy access to a yard for frequent outings and the ability to let him out during the day) and we are working on his manners. He still wants to jump up in his greeting style, but is learning to respect the human and would benefit with some training or puppy classes. We recommend only children over 10, as he still gets so excited and happy with them. An experienced owner would help this guy along to become the perfect dog.
