MEET DUSTIN…a kissy face, 13 lb, cream colored, 4.5 yr old ShihTzu Poodle, who came from the streets with his homeless mom. This poor baby has not had an easy life. His mom didn’t even know how old he was (she knew his birthday 12/21, just wrong year!) When he arrived, he was a little disoriented but within a few hours, he knew he was safe. He’s a good eater, very affectionate and wants to be with you all the time. He is easy to take to brunch or wherever you go…he wants to please and be your guy! When you first leave him, he doesn’t like it and will bark — but having another dog in the home who he can bond to, along with a loving family and kids over 8 yrs old, makes it easier for him to know he isn’t being abandoned. Definitely will need a buddy — human and canine!
Dustin is good on a leash but definitely could use some training! He will bark at people and other dogs, so needs to be distracted. He likes to do his business outside for the most part, but could use practice. His favorite place to do #2 is against a tree or in the bushes! If he can’t get outside, he will use a pp pad for the most part. We never guarantee anyone is potty trained, but he is smart and wants to please, so we believe he will be easy to train.
Little Dustin needs a home where his family will be there to reassure him he will always have roof over his head. Dustin would love a yard, another dog as a companion and of course, you. So far, he is good with everyone…dogs, people, kids. Would you allow him to be good with you and your family?
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

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!
