OK...
Free to a good home if Skye cannot find one for her by monday. I have Meka and just picked up a couple pits plus i hate this fucking dog so...

I paid like $300 for her form the pet store down in Iowa City... Pet Palace or something like that... Anyways, certified pure bread and all that good stuff, she is NOT potty trained. I have been tryin since we got her but I think she is fucking retarded or something. I have trained every other dog i have ever had in 3 days... Been almost 3 months with this one now... She is about 7-8 months old...

This is an older pic but she aint too much bigger... I have the paper work she came with and even the receipt I believe. Just tryin to keep her out of the pound but come wednesday she is gone...

it might just be my computer, but i can't get the picture to work, it kept saying the picstation site wasn't responding.

you shouldn't have posted this, i have suchhhh a soft spot for puppies. haha. and we REALLY don't need a puppy.

BUT, just in case i can talk zac into it.. is she pretty good with the other animals? was she pretty good with the baby too? anddd how noisy is she?

She is very good with other animals and babies!

Landon would literaly drag her around by her tail/ears/random hair and she would just kinda go with it... She has gotten along with everything she has ever been around in the 2-3 months i have had her. She does bark at people outside, like when they are walking by on the sidewalk or something. Never inside unless Meka starts up, then she fallows.

Just trying to keep her out of the pound but she is going soon one way or another. Wow... that really makes me sound like an asshole huh...? Anyways, she was a valentines day present for Skye and we decided to do our own things for a while and she can't have her where she is and she don't want her anyways... so... yeah... i just want her gone. I have 2 pits, a french bulldog and a python, she just dont fit in at my house.

Can you get anymore pics? the first one doesnt work. and the last one is really small. And do you know how big these get?

Fat ones can get to about 20lbs, average is about 13lbs or so... She was the runt of teh litter so she will be even a little smaller than most. I believe dogs are full grown at about a year...? so she isn't going to get much bigger at all, may be gain a couple more punds, that is it... Pretty much the exact same as a Shih Tsu but with a not so flat face... they are GREAT dogs! I had 4 of them growing up! well shih tsu / lhaso apso like i said same thing pretty much...

here is breed info: http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/lhasaapso.htm

the small ones are usually done growing at 1 year. large breeds at about 2.

but on a side note... simply because i dont like pounds...

I found a Lhasa Apso rescue society, maybe you can contact them and see if they have a foster home or shelter in the area. Rescue societies usually do a much better job at finding a dog a home then the shelters do.

That website has a contact thing where you can email them your location and they can send a rep or a foster home person to pick her up.


Sorry i was dumb in the prior post and forgot to include the website.

Papers and everything are sitting here ready as well...

We have the dog, thanks. Anita is home all the time and will train it somehow. Those lil dogs are like lil babies always wanting something to be petted, held, told they are good. My older shi tzu has already established he is #3 in the pack. Yet he wants to play with the lil one already. Anita's gonna name it Shelby and wants a middle name. I said cobra..lol.. any ideas?

sLoWnStEaDy,
I decided to change her name to Shelby because she would not come or acknowledge the name she had when I called to her. I will be needing a comfrimation from you that you turned the dog over to me as her new owner for the AKC COMPANION ANIMAL RECOVERY ID SYSTEM so they can change the owner's information and address so if she happens to become lost/stolen ,ect.... the microchip that is in her will register her to me, so please IM me so I can give you my email addy to send it to.

Today I'll be taking Short Stuff and Shelby to Short Stuff''s groomer as they both deserve a day at the salon getting their hair done,lol.

Thank you again for the little girl , she'll be well loved and cared for.



ashley,

Can you think of any girl names that would go good for a middle name ?

Dustin,
Thank you for the name and yes I am going to use it because your right Shelby Bianca will be very spoiled just like our Short Stuff is :) .

Yeah that's a good name Dustin.

Ashley probably hasn't been on the boards at all yet today. Had class this morning from noon (we work 2nd shift, so noon is the morning lol) until 2:50. Came home for just long enough to have some lunch with me and is now off to work.

By some freak accident I have the next 5 days off work, though :)

little dogs like that all look spoiled; mainly because 99% of them are. i want a dog i dont have to worry about breaking, but thats just me.

anyway, no worries about the name, just the first thing that came to mind.
