CLAUDE

Are you looking for a mature gentleman? One who is well-mannered, gentle and loving? I may be the one for you!!! My name is Claude and I am a 10 year old Lhasa Apso who weighs about 18 pounds. I know I am older than some of my foster brothers and sisters, but I feel that I deserve to live the rest of my life in my very own forever home. Let me tell you a bit about myself, so you know how special I am.
Although I see okay, I do need to have my foster mom put eye drops in my eyes daily for dry eye. I also have part of one of my ears missing. My foster mom thinks that I may have been in either an accident or was attacked as I have some other scarring besides my missing ear. I am definitely not a fighter so mom thinks that I may have been around the wrong dog at the wrong time. I am actually very loving and gentle. I sometimes like to romp and play with my foster brothers and sisters but I like to pick the time to play. My specific duty at the house is to greet all the new dogs and make them feel welcome.
I also don’t have any front teeth, so when it comes to eating I get to eat from a regular dinner plate rather than a dog bowl. That makes me feel very special. I know when my foster mom is in the kitchen preparing all of our meals and I am ready and waiting at the gate to come in. I am very patient and wait my turn for dinner. Once I have finished my meal, I patiently wait for someone to let me back into the living area to be with all my doggie friends. I never bark and make a ruckus to go back. Mom says that I am a very good boy.
I am definitely a lap dog or maybe I could be called a “foot dog” as I will sit by your feet for as long as you let me. I am very devoted to my foster mom and the family and I love to be wherever they are.
I am doing very well with my house training. I wear a belly-band as I used to have accidents in the house. Whenever my foster family takes me outside I do my business and come right back in. If I am let out often enough, I have no accidents.
Please consider me as the older man in your life. I promise I will be a faithful and loving companion. Email my foster mom at sherry352@sbcglobal.net for more information. And, please check out my Petfinder page.
I am altered, up-to-date on all my shots and am heartworm negative.
