Story
Mr. Higgiebottoms - Fostered in Las Vegas Hello! My name is Mr. Higgiebottoms but that is much too formal for my friends. You can call me Higgie. I'm a sweet old dude who was adopted from the shelter at 4 years old and then turned back into the shelter 10 years later as a big hot mess. A Purposeful Rescue knows when there is some magic happening under that hot mess and made sure I got my ticket out of there! I got some much needed TLC which included a groom and full vetting (you should see how clean my dull chompers are now). I am being fostered in Las Vegas which means you need to be able to travel there to meet me. I'm living with a houseful of other quirky retirees and I like to try and snuggle in bed with them. In general, I prefer the company of mellow dogs as I don't hear well and my vision is also a little cloudy so rambunctious dogs startle me. After losing my first family, I desperately want to be loved and to have a person. If you're looking for a new BFF, I can be that BFF!

Story
Looking for a furry companion who is truly special? Meet Puddle, the brave Havanese pup who is in need of a loving home. Puddle has two ectopic ureters which can cause her to be incontinent, even though she is house trained. This usually occurs at night when she is asleep. At just 5 months old and weighing about 10 pounds, Puddle may have special needs, but that doesn't stop her from being a bundle of joy! Havanese dogs are known for their loving and sociable nature, and Puddle is no exception. Despite facing some challenges, Puddle has an indomitable spirit and is determined to live life to the fullest. She's a true fighter and an inspiration to everyone she meets. Puddle is currently located in Seattle, but she's willing to travel anywhere for love. She gets along well with other pets and children, making him a perfect addition to any family. With a heart full of love to give, Puddle will be your loyal companion through thick and thin. Adopting a special needs pet like Puddle is a rewarding experience that brings immense joy and fulfillment. If you're looking for a furry friend who will touch your heart in the most special way, Puddle is the one. Come meet her today and open your heart to this brave and loving Havanese pup! ❤️

Story
Please, no phone calls. Interested applicants can email us here: info@TFPF.org Poor Benny was recently surrendered to The Fuzzy Pet Foundation - (TFPF) because his owner was "moving." She had purchased him from the mall a couple of years ago when he was sold as a Havanese puppy. Aside from sporadic haircuts, Benny's owner never took him to the vet for basic vaccines or a wellness exam. Benny is understandably sad and confused, but he is safe with us. We've promised him a brighter future, and we'll make sure he goes to the best possible home! Benny is sweet and calm, and he loves to wrap his paws around us to give hugs. He enjoys being held in our arms. He is always wagging his tail to greet people and other dogs. He does not have a single mean bone in his body! We feel he will thrive in a gentle, nurturing home without young, rambunctious kids. Benny has a clean bill of health. He is now current on vaccines and labwork, and he recently underwent a neuter procedure. He weighs 14.52 pounds.

Story
Meet Zoey, our absolutely adorable little rescue girl! This little cutie is a 5 year old, 11lb Havanese/Shih Tzu (with probably some Poodle also) that will steal your heart! Zoey has quite the personality! She is confidant, happy, spunky, and so lovable! Zoey would make an amazing companion for an owner who is newly retired or works from home. We rescued Zoey from an owner that never took care of her serious back condition. She was paralyzed from the waist down when we got her, so we immediately got her to a surgeon who performed her life altering surgery. The surgery was a success and Zoey is as good as new. Obviously, preventative measures should be continued which consists of short walks, dog ramps in the home to the couch and bed (she needs to be allowed to sit and sleep with you)-no jumping on/off furniture, and of course, yearly exams. Zoey absolutely LOVES people more than anything in the world and would love an owner that dotes on her and takes them with her wherever they go. She is good with other dogs but can be a bit bossy, so she should either be an only dog or with a very submissive dog. Zoey is great in the car, great on little walks, and is perfect with every person she meets! She MUST have a single level home with no stairs. A backyard where she could sunbathe (which she LOVES doing) would be ideal! Although Zoey is great with children, an adult only home would be best as she should not be picked up by young children because of her back. Zoey is such a happy little dog with such a true zest for life! She has been through so much that we want to see her in the most loving and caring forever home out there! Please contact us for more info on this sweet girl! Gina@theforgottendog.org or 310-990-2020 Zoey is microchipped, vaccinated, and spayed. We only place dogs in the Greater Los Angeles Areas as an in person meet/greet, home check, and trial period are required. Zoey's adoption fee is $600 If all requirements are met, please feel free to fill out an application. Please note that due to the amount of apps we get in, we can only call back those that could be a possibility for a meet/greet. Thank you https://theforgottendog.org/all-pets/adoption-application/

Story
PLEASE READ THIS PROFILE AND THE REQUESTED CRITERIA BEFORE CALLING OR SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION. THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION AND CONSIDERATION THIS IS BROOKLYN…and she earned her name because she has lots of moxy! We are not sure what her breed is, a little of this and a little of that, but this 3 yr old, 15 lb, black/white, darling of a dog is non shedding and probably hypoallergenic…but you’ll have to test that for yourself. She looked like Pic #4 when she arrived. She looked like a Shih Tzu mix, but not after she was shaved! What we can tell you is she is personality personified! She listens when you give her parameters like “stay” don’t run out the door. Stop, when she is barking, and she is a complete love in the car, sitting like a little lady! That being said, she is VERY active and happy and she would do best in a home with another, small, active dog. She is a girl who would be happy going running with you and while we don’t think she has separation anxiety, she will bark when you initially leave but quiets down. That is only because she wants to be with you! She does her business outside or on a pp pad, but no guarantees at your house. She would not be a good fit in a senior home, as she really is rambunctious and loves to be in your face giving you kisses! She loves people, other dogs and kids over 10 yrs old would be fantastic (we just don’t want her to knock them over!) Whatever she is, she can be yours if you have the right fit…and she will make you a very happy doggie parent! **Brooklyn will be at adoptions on May 21, 2023 as she is recovering from pneumonia ;( 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.

Story
Our rescue group came to Holly's aid when she needed a major medical surgery. She was a trooper through the entire healing process and now has a clean bill of health. Holly is fearful of new people and requires patience in the meet and greet process. She is good with other dogs and once she trusts you she is cuddly, loving and forever sweet. This is not a dog for a first time dog owner - she has been through a lot and requires a dog savvy, kind understanding individual to work with her hear.

Meet coyote a nice dog who enjoys attention and just relaxing with his friends. Coyote belonged to my uncle who unfortunately passed away. Coyote has a slight vision problem but that does not stop this dog from being totally independent and capable. Looking for a caring home to give this dog the love he deserves.

Hello! My name is Amazing Alex, I am a 16-pound, 12 year old, male Bichon-Havanese. I love my human, I am sight impaired and need to find my way around before I'm comfortable. I love going on walks and car rides. I have great energy and don't act my age at all, if I like a toy I will play with it all day long. I know how to use the doggy door and I am house trained, so I can stay by myself for a couple of hours without supervision :) I am loved and well-cared for with my foster family but I am looking for my forever home. If you want a guy that will love you unconditionally and follows you everywhere, I am your guy. I have had a thorough health examination, I am microchipped and I have had a complete dental cleaning. If you have room in your heart and home for me, please complete an adoption application. https://bichonrescueoc.org/adoption-application

Patsy is a beautiful Bichon girl who's about 6 years old and weighs 16 pounds.  She is the essence of sunshine and her exuberant personality lights up the room and puts a smile on everyone's face.  It's hard to believe that such a happy, affectionate and trusting little girl could have been a stray at a high-kill shelter, but that's the reality.  Patsy is Ms. Congeniality and treats everyone she meets like her long-lost friend.  She gets along great with other dogs and kids and enjoys any social setting.  Patsy loves to go for walks and is great in a car.  She's fun-loving and enjoys her toys and chasing around her four-legged friends.  Patsy is in great shape and has had full bloodwork and a dental and is of course spayed, chipped and has all shots.  She's ready to light up your heart and home.  Please fill out the adoption application on our website bichonsandbuddies.com if interested.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 1, 2023, 1:41 am

This is Max. He is a very spunky and happy go lucky pup that loves to be around people. He does have some separation anxiety and may need a new pawrent who can help him overcome it and won't mind his barking along the way! Breeds are a best guess by staff and can not be guaranteed.
