Description

Posted Breed: Lhasa Apso / Mixed (medium coat). 10 year old, 15 lb BLIND Lhasa Apso Mix SPAYED FEMALE for ADOPTION Meet Zucchini Produce ! Zucchini is a ~10 year old Lhasa Apso mix that comes to us from Contra Costa Animal Services. UPDATE 5/12/24 -- She had glaucoma and dry eye and recently had both eyes removed -- photos will be updated by this weekend She is a huge fan of Puppachinos and she gets a bite or two after a long week of eating healthy. She is really good about taking any meds in some wet food. She also loves the sound of her own voice so an apartment would not be the best setting for her long term. This is what her foster mom has to say about this sweet girl - "Zucchini is a very active dog. She’s a good girl, very sweet and she loves praise. All she wants to do is play with the other dogs in her foster home. She can be pushy and doesn’t know the meaning of boundaries. We highly recommend training classes to help her learn manners and succeed. She’s super happy and loves to go on walks. Once she sees the leash in your hand she gets crazy happy. She will follow you everywhere if she loves you. She’s not a Velcro dog but she wants to be close enough to you to see you. She loves to give you kisses and receiving lots of belly rubs in return. She HATES staying the kennel and can be very vocal. Car rides are not a favorite of hers either but she’s learning. We don’t recommend a home with cats because she will chase them. Since she needs help learning her limits, older children in the home is also recommended. She freely uses the potty pads and if taken out she will do her business. She has not yet learned to go out on her own. Her foster mom says she is spoiled and likely lived in a home who did not give her any boundaries or make her share. She needs to learn boundaries and that the world does not revolve around Zucchini -- as in she came to live at your home and not the other way around Zucchini is being fostered in the Sac Area in Northern CA.
