Description
Dog Breed: Poodle (Miniature) / Lhasa Apso / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: 450.00. All dogs listed here are available for adoption from Yorkie Rescue Houston. Our goal is to ensure our rescued pets go to their forever home and never end up back in the system. To that end, an application is required on all potential adopters. Our adoption fee varies by dog. We accept electronic funds via VENMO or Zelle, or cash only. donateyorkierescuehouston or, if you prefer: our fundraising platform, Zeffy Puppies too young to be spayed/neutered are available for Foster-to-Adopt only. A FTA contract is required. BITEY! **update** Wrigley is also known as 'The destroyer of anything fluffy' He delights in rendering all soft and fluffy items flat and unusable! no Toy or bed is safe. Also, this boy is stubborn and not responsive to kissy invites to 'go outside'. Wrigley was surrendered by his family with a small 'tumor' on his back. He had become 'bitey'. (I would too, if allowed to suffer the pain of being MATTED TO THE SKIN!) We took him from the shelter and he went straight to our vet. It wasn't a tumor. THEY were cysts. He had 5 large cysts that had been allowed to grow unchecked. He was badly matted and required sedation grooming. While he was under, he also got a badly needed dental! All 5 cysts were removed and he is healing nicely. Wrigley is a bit of a loner, preferring to chill in a quiet room. He gets along with other dogs, but does not seem to enjoy their company, he does not engage in play or other activities. We believe he will do best with an experienced dog owner with no other dogs in the home.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Lhasa-Poo is a delightful crossbreed, combining the sturdy charm of the Lhasa Apso with the intelligence and low-shedding coat of the Miniature Poodle. Originating from designer breed programs, these charming companions typically inherit a soft, wavy to curly coat that can be a variety of colors and is often described as hypoallergenic, making them suitable for individuals with allergies. Physically, they are small to medium-sized dogs, generally weighing between 10-20 pounds, with expressive eyes and a sturdy build. Temperamentally, Lhasa-Poos are known for being affectionate, intelligent, and often playful, though they can exhibit a protective streak from their Lhasa Apso lineage. They adapt well to apartment living and are generally good with respectful children, making them excellent family pets. While generally healthy, potential health concerns can include patellar luxation, eye conditions, and dental issues, inherited from their parent breeds. Regular grooming is essential to prevent matting.
