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

THIS IS TATER TOT….and he may be diminutive at only 7.5 lbs, but he has a big personality! He came from South Central Shelter nearly emaciated and his right eye had been removed from a previous injury. But that doesn’t stop him for a second! This petite, charcoal colored, 5 yr old, Shih Tzu, is active, happy, playful and good with everyone! Tater Tot is a kissy face angel who just loves being with his persons. He is playful with other dogs, but seems to be very people oriented and will hang out with you, or other dogs, being his easy going self. He seems to be potty trained with outside access, but no guarantees at your house. Our vet thought he was 5-6 yrs old but he plays like a puppy! Doesn’t seem real interested in toys, but he just arrived and is still getting settled. Tater is really small, so kids over 10 yrs old would be okay, but he might like being your snuggle buddy! He’s the type of dog who could go into almost any home except one where he would be left all alone. He’s a love…and deserves the best. Can you give that to him?

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.

UPDATE!!!! Lhasa Happy Homes will be now holding our adoption events most every Sunday at ROVER KENNELS on Main Street in Santa Monica (check calendar link below for special events and directions). Rover 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 a copy of your application and pictures of your home and yard if we have not done a home check! 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!

See our home page for more details about our adoptions at Lhasa Happy Homes

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.
