PLEASE READ THIS PROFILE AND THE REQUESTED CRITERIA BEFORE CALLING OR SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION. THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION AND CONSIDERATION
THIS IS CRENSHAW.....a 9 lb, 1.5-2 yr old, white, adorable Maltese; not positive if he is pure or not, but he is soft as cashmere and an absolute love. Crenshaw got his name from the area he was rescued from -- the South Central Shelter....where he was brought in as a stray. We were going there to evaluate another dog, who were actually visiting to evaluate saw him begging to get out. He was in a run with a very aggressive Lhasa, the dog we hoped to take...but we couldn't get near him. Crenshaw's eyes just begged us to get him out of there, he was available so home he came with us. Crenshaw is just a young pup with a lot of energy and a lot of cuddle in him. We don't think he got a lot of attention, as he craves it, but he also loves to play. He's actually still learning how to do that....but was kissing his foster buddy and loved the companionship. He definitely needs another dog to bond with -- unless he has a lot of you!! He can be very vocal, but with love, attention, training and patience, you'll get used to it!!! :) Crenshaw is still learning about being a dog....he does use pp pads and loves to go on walks...but would definitely be a candidate for training. Needs a refresher course on potty training, but he is learning. He does know some commands, mostly "gimme some love and kisses" and he will do so joyfully. Crenshaw is a winner!
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 tag!
If you are interested in adopting a pup from Lhasa Happy Homes, please complete the Adoption Application before calling. We want to give you the time you deserve, so please help us help you!! We will contact you once it has been reviewed.
Most every Sunday, unless we are doing a special event, we are at Century City Mall (10250 Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles 90067 behind the Concierge Booth near Brooks Bros) from 12-4pm. You can see this, and many more, adorable pups at this weekly event! 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!!! And don't forget to check out our Events Calendar for more information on events we may be doing! 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.
Rescue Group Info...
Lhasa Happy Homes is a private rescue and foster care organization, created for the safe haven and permanent placement of homeless pups, primarily Lhasa Apsos, Shih Tzus, Maltese, Pomeranians and other small mixed breeds. Each of the dogs who come to Lhasa Happy Homes is cared for in a home-like environment, with an abundance of love, attention and special care. These dogs have been through a lot...and it is our objective to make them feel secure, safe and protected... so that when they are placed in their forever homes, they will stay there!
We are NOT a shelter. We rescue from the Los Angeles city and county shelters, and Orange County shelter. We accept Lhasa Apso, Shih Tzu, Maltese and Pomeranian owner turn-ins who are need of re-homing for whatever reason (to save them from even a temporary stay at a shelter).
We advocate the spaying and neutering of all animals -- no pup will be adopted from this organization before he/she has been altered. We also treat these pups as if they were our own, providing them with care, attention, a loving environment and rehabilitation, when necessary, to prepare them for their forever homes.
We are a non-profit, 501c3 organization. The adoption fee for each pup goes towards subsidizing the expenses involved in preparing the pups for adoption. This includes altering, grooming, de-worming, flea treatment, medical attention, prescriptions, vaccinations and home delivery. Transport, where/when applicable, is not included.
Our utmost goal is to adopt to humans who will provide the perfect "forever" home for these little furbabies -- wonderful animals who deserve a second chance at a great life.

How do I start the adoption process to adopt from Lhasa Happy Homes Rescue?
1. COMPLETE THE APPLICATION ON OUR WEBSITE AT WWW.LHASAHAPPYHOMES.ORG
If you are interested in any of the pups at Lhasa Happy Homes, the first step is to complete the application. Until we know a little about you and what you are looking for, it is impossible for us to tell if a dog is right for you and your family.
2. APPLICATION WILL BE REVIEWED
Once your application has been reviewed and hopefully approved, we will contact you (either by phone or by email) to discuss this adoption further and to set up a time to meet the animal of your choice. You might find us a bit "invasive" with the questions you are asked…that's why they often call us the "Benevolent Lhasa Nazis." Our only objective is to make the perfect match, and we truly go that extra mile in search of exceptional homes for our little furry friends. Each has their own unique personality and characteristics. Their lives have been interrupted for one reason or another, and it's our job to make certain wherever they go next is the last time they will have to move! We endeavor to match the pup with what you are looking for so that they are yours forever more! We do not adopt to families with children under 5 yrs old; generally not under 8 yrs old and we rarely adopt out of state.
3. HOME CHECK WILL BE ARRANGED
The goal here is to make sure the home is secure and that the dog is not likely to get out and lost again! This will either be arranged prior to or after you have met the dog you are interested in. We may, at our discretion, accept photos of your home in lieu of a home visit.
4. REVIEW AND SIGN AGREEMENT
Pay a donation (adoption donation starts at $200). The donation includes spay/neuter, vaccinations, grooming, vet check, deworming, defleaing, leash/collar/ID tag and microchip. Then take home your new child!
We would be honored to help you find
your new family member.
We prefer placing locally in LA and Orange Counties, however, we will consider adoptions in Northern California and San Diego. We do not adopt out of state.
We hold our adoptions every Sunday at My Pet Naturally (Pico and Bundy in West LA)
