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 BLISS…a wonderful, blissful little 12 lb, 4.5 yr old, b/w Shih Tzu, who came from the Riverside Shelter with a horrible case of kennel cough and a UTI. We put her on antibiotics, which cured her UTI, but unfortunately it didn’t stop her from getting a nasty case of pneumonia 🙁 Two weeks in the hospital and back at home, Bliss is a different dog! Minute she came home, she was so excited, jumping all around, playing with her toys and just acting like a puppy!!

This little girl is the sweetest…seems potty trained, but we never guarantee. When she goes out to do her business, she is pretty quick — which is wonderful! She will likely use a pp pad if you don’t get her out 2-3 times daily, but she seems to hold it. She loves to ride in the car and just go everywhere with you if you’ll take her! When you cuddle with her, she would stay in your arms forever as you pet and caress her very thin body! We are working on putting a little weight on her — it’s pretty obvious she was probably with a good intentioned, but not knowledgeable family. With good nourishment (she loves to eat) some time, and a bit of patience, she will be a phenomenal addition to any family. Just started to give a few kisses, and she loves to chase toys! We also haven’t heard her bark yet…she would not be a good guard dog!!

The ideal home for Bliss would be one where you are home a lot to give her the attention and exercise she needs to see the world. Doesn’t seem to have any fearful tendencies…just a real lover. Loves other dogs, but since she just got back from being sick, we’re not sure if she needs another dog or not yet. We will keep you posted!!

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.

Lhasa Happy Homes will be now holding our adoption events the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month on Main Street in Santa Monica (check calendar link below for special events and directions). Our event 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 pictures or video of your home and yard if we have not done a home check (preferred)! 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.
