Description
Dog Breed: Lhasa Apso. Meet Shaggy Shaggy is a sweet, silky Lhasa Apso mix, about 2 years old, with soft fur, gentle eyes, and a heart that has clearly loved deeply. After his owner passed away, Shaggy was heartbreakingly left in the desert, waiting and searching for the person he loved. He didn’t understand why they never came back—and in many ways, he’s still a little lost, still hoping to find them. It’s a quiet kind of sadness, mixed with incredible sweetness and trust. Despite everything he’s been through, Shaggy is a good, gentle boy. He’s house trained, crate trained, and does well with other dogs. He’s calm, affectionate, and tender-hearted—one of those dogs who bonds deeply and loves with his whole soul. Shaggy doesn’t need fixing. He just needs someone new to belong to. A safe place. A soft bed. A human who will show him that love didn’t disappear—it just found a new form. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a beautiful heart and a story that will stay with you forever, Shaggy is ready to start again… this time with someone who won’t leave.

Breed overview
Lhasa Apso
A.K.A.: Lion Dog, Apso, Abso, Shaggy-Haired Tibetan Dog, Bearded Lion Dog, Himalayan Mountain Dog, Tibetan Apso
Overview:
The Lhasa Apso is an ancient and captivating breed, originating in the Himalayas where they served as watchdogs in monasteries and palaces. These small yet sturdy dogs possess a distinctive appearance, characterized by their long, flowing double coat that often comes in a variety of colors, and a charmingly alert expression framed by hair falling over their eyes. Beneath that luxurious coat is a confident and somewhat independent spirit; they are known for being intelligent, devoted to their families, but can be a bit reserved with strangers. Their relatively small size and moderate exercise requirements make them surprisingly well-suited for apartment living, though regular grooming is essential to maintain their magnificent coat. While generally a healthy breed with a lifespan often reaching into their teens, potential owners should be aware of conditions like patellar luxation or eye problems. With proper socialization and consistent training, the Lhasa Apso can be a delightful and loyal companion for individuals and families alike, offering both love and a touch of ancient mystique.
