Smilin Jack Cisco Lhasa Apso Mix Los Alamitos, CA

Please read the dog's entire bio before you apply. Sadly, we are no longer able to respond to every application, but will contact the one that is a good match within 3 days.
Cisco was abandoned left overnight tied to a fence by a vet's office, he was a mess and clearly has not had good care for a long time. He came to us with ear infections, skin infections, eye infections and a minor heart murmur. He has done great with all of his treatments, his skin is starting to look good, his eye are clear (although he does have dry eye and will need eye drops for the rest of his life), he has been neutered and had a dental cleaning with 7 teeth pulled. He is a trooper. While Cisco does run into things, he is not bothered by it at all, he havigates small steps, doors, finds food/water and wants to explore. He is about 15 lbs and we guess 10-12 years old. He is social and loving and wags his little tail all the time.
