Mimi turned 16 in August. Deaf as a post but she still sees decently. Is somehow getting quicker on walks, aging backwards I think… my best friend since I was a child. Bursting with love for her so sharing it on here!

Edit: To all the kind-hearted hoomans who wished my baby boi a happy birthday, thank you! We both truly appreciate each and every one of your wishes 🫶🏼

Recently adopted a Lhasa pup. My third. First had passed, leaving behind current senior (10 years old) without a companion (they were brothers in arms for 9 good years).

So the time is ripe to find a companion for senior.

Puppy is exuberant and very active. Senior is adapting to puppy and seems to take to new puppy well.

Household is so much more active now. Love it when I see them wrestle with each other.

Found Male Shitzu or LhasaApso

Found at: Cypress Park & Recreation Center 2630 Pepper Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90065

Currently: North Central Animal shelter.

The dog does not have a chip or collar. He was very dirty and has been in the neighborhood wandering for a least a couple of days according to some people in the area.

He is not inclined to come to people, but approached a dog walker with four dogs and he was able to be picked up

He is not aggressive. He is okay being held and rode fairly nicely in my car.

However, he wanted to get out of my car and I almost lost him when he hopped out. He might be someone’s beloved lost pet.

Please cross post this. I’m sure he will be adopted quickly once the stay hold is up.

Hello

This is Scout, a 5.5 month little Lhasa apso.
She’s my second Lhasa girl, having lost my little Bella after a wonderful 11.5 years together.

Scout could not be more different to Bella as a puppy!! She is wild lol. Bella was super chill even as a pup and my grandparents lhasa was the same. Scout is your typical puppy, always hyper , always wants to play. She struggles to settle with me in the evening.
We went through some very bad biting, leaving me so bruised people in work checked things were ok at home 🙈 I have that mostly under control now which is great and we have done puppy classes. She loves people and other dogs.
She has only started to lose her teeth now, so still a good bit of teething to go!

I’m keen to hear other people’s expeirences about their puppies and if they ever mellowed 🙈

I love the playfulness and excitable nature but I also would love her to be able to relax on the sofa with me, and eventually sleep up in my bed.
She has no problem relaxing on her own, if I pop her in the kitchen she’ll go for a nap, but I’d love her to nap on the sofa with me. I hate putting her away for a nap feels so mean, and just a different experience to Bella who jsut fell asleep where she was when she was tired.

Any similar experiences or any advice on how I can help her chill?
I give her natural chews but they ramp her up lentils and she loves to throw them about and hunt them lol

I am hopeful this is a lot of puppy energy and she will learn to settle soon!

I noticed the other day that my two 10 month old puppies are missing dew claws. One of them has a little nub but without a nail.

Is this common for Lhasas? I would imagine they were likely removed as opposed to being born without them. Makes me sad to think they were removed when they were babies.

I didn’t get the puppies from a breeder, but from a woman who had medical issues and coils no longer take care of them so I can’t ask the breeder.

i currently have an 8 month old Lhasa apso for the first time! i got him at 4 months. i love him so bad and he was easy to potty train, but when it comes to behavior itself it’s hard to get him to stop being bossy and stubborn. Is there any advice for the most effective way to train this breed to listen more? Is it because he’s young?

Hello everyone this is Frankie and I adopted him mid-July. The rescue wasn't sure if he was shih tzu or lhasa. The vet I took him to noted him as lhasa around 2 to 3 years old. I do know he's a very good boy 😊

Sofie. 10 yrs young. Back from the groomer, ready for the weekend.

My sweet baby girl sadly passed last week at 17 years old. She was my sassy little shadow and absolute light of my life💕

this is my grandparents (now mine) lhasa named poppy! she just turned 9 and has the best eyelashes ever

Does anyone in health have a dog with eye issues? Our twinkie is a beautiful little girl. She's given a prescription gel twice a day for very dry eyes. There's a technical name. I forget what it is. But all around your eyes gets thickened and brown. I'm wondering if anyone has any tricks for keeping this cleaner. Besides getting frequent grooms and trims, we also will hold a warm cloth and try to clean it as well as we can. But she doesn't like it too much
