Lhasa Apso Dogs Available for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Hello there and welcome to my Petfinder page. I am Leo, and I am looking for a home to call my own: a forever place and someone to love. Let me know if you think we could be a great match.

Here’s my stats:
Possible Breed: Lhasa Apso/mix
Gender: I’m a boy pup
Colors: mostly white
Age: about 2 years old

Ideal Home:
A home without children under 8 is necessary, and it would be great to have people willing to give me attention, love, and cuddles. I’m a really good boy and would love to join your family!

Other:
I am house-trained in my foster home, but I will most likely need to be re-trained in my new home. We all have an adjustment period, so please be patient with me! I am willing to learn and will do my best, I promise!

I was also heartworm positive when I was taken into the rescue. However, I did my treatment and crate rest, so I’m now ready to go to my forever home!

I am young, playful, curious, and full of energy.

For more information, email my foster mom at: Teresa@shihtzu-rescue.com

PS. I've had ALL my vetting, and oh boy, it was a lot. Here's what I had done:
Distemper/Parvo shots
Bordetella
Spay/Neuter-of course.
A fecal exam so I don't have any bad worms. Treatment if I do.
A heartworm test. Treatment if I am positive for heart worms.
BLOODWORK to make sure my liver and kidneys are working well, because you know, we doggies often have issues in the liver and kidneys.
A DENTAL exam AND cleaning if I needed it- yep, all my toofies are checked out.
See, that's a LOT. Ask your vet - that's a LOT.

The Lhasa Apso is a small and fearless dog breed originating from Tibet, known for its long and flowing double coat that requires regular grooming. These alert and loyal companions possess a distinctive demeanor and make excellent watchdogs. They are independent yet affectionate, enjoying their human family's company while also being wary of strangers. With a history rooted in Buddhist monasteries, the Lhasa Apso is a sturdy and ancient breed cherished for its adaptability and unique personality.

To rescue those no one else wants.
