MEET MARVIN….a precious 16 yrs young, tri colored, 12 lb, Shih Tzu, who was unceremoniously dumped by his owners at the Carson Shelter….”because he was old.” We truly do not believe he is 16! He even still has a lot of teeth!! We’ve had Marvin for several weeks and he does not act like a 16 yr old dog! He is a great little man. He gets along great with other dogs. He may be deaf but he is wonderful. He is not blind! Marvin is calm and seems to be housebroken. He barks when he needs to go outside or when he wants up on the couch or the bed. He gives tons of kisses. He can be independent but also likes to snuggle. He absolutely loves to stick his head in the fridge when you open it to see if there’s any goodies for him. He does not play with toys that often but he surprises you and plays sometimes. He is completely adorable and full of love. All Marvin needs is a home where he can live out his golden years — we have a 19 yr old Lhasa! Marvin is healthy and needs warm arms and a happy heart to embrace his wonderful self!! Could that be 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

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!

Events Calendar for more information on upcoming events!
