CANEO
My name is Caneo and I am a 15 pound, 3 (or so) year old Lhasa Apso boy. I was found in Louisiana, running around in a sugar cane field. I was all matted, dirty, and very scared of everyone. Luckily I was rescued by some wonderful folks who took me home, gave me a bath, groomed me, and have taken very good care of me ever since. My pictures show me the day I was rescued and how I look now. I am quite the handsome lad if I must say so myself!!
I love to play with the other dogs in my foster home and I like the cats that live there too. But, if you have cats in your home, and you might be interested in me, make sure the cats like to play as I will run and chase them FOREVER!! Also, I get a little rambunctious with the other dogs, so I would be best in a home that has dogs that are at least as big and as playful as I am.
I like people, but in typical Lhasa fashion, it will take me a couple of minutes to warm up to you. Once I know you, I will be your friend for a long time to come. I am a bit protective of my foster home and my foster mom, and I might snap a bit. But, once I figure out you are OK all is fine with me! My foster mom is quite proud of me as I am becoming more comfortable with people who come into my home. I even SNUGGLED with the water meter reader!! I will also “sit” on command and will definitely sit for ear scratches and dog biscuits!
I love to run and play, so my ideal forever home would have a fenced in yard for me to roam, maybe another sturdy dog to play with, and adults only. I think I might be scared of children as they can be a bit too rough and tumble for me. I know there is someone out there who knows and understands the Lhasa breed. That person would know that I would benefit from adult leadership, obedience training, and loving guidance to help me be a good Lhasa boy.
If you think I might fit into your home, please check out my Petfinder page and contact my foster mom at rvasak@comcast.net. I would love someone who will help me be a good Lhasa Apso. If you are that person, I promise to be your devoted and loving companion.
I am altered, up-to-date on all my shots and am heartworm negative.
