9/1/09 Update: Erwin's Foster Mom officially adopted Erwin. He is just such a good buddy that she could not live without him. Thank you to everyone who helped get Erwin adopted.
8/15/09 Update: Erwin still has not found a forever home and is living with one of his Foster Mom's Karen. He is living the good life and he definitely knows it. Erwin is a wonderful dog that I know would make someone a great companion! Please consider making him your buddy.
Erwin’s Mom died and he has no family or friends that want him. I have been fostering him, along with two other neighbors, but it’s time for him to move on to a single, loving and forever home.
He is a wonderful and sweet 14 year old, neutered/male, Llasa Apso who is content to just hang out with you. He is larger than the breed standard, he weighs about 24 lbs. He had a complete blood panel in preparation for a much needed dental cleaning and it showed he is in overall good health. His dental has been done and he was given a clean bill of health by the Vet.
Erwin needs someone who will just love and pamper him like his Mom did. Here’s a little more information about Erwin:
*Completely potty trained
*Very cooperative in general
*Some hearing loss and a touch of arthritis in his rear leg
*Loves car rides, great on walks and adores exploring new places
*Totally mellow and great to hang out with/ He will follow you around from room to room
*Loves to be pet, massaged and puppy loved
*Great grooming attitude
*Thunderstorms and extremely loud rain create some mild anxiety—he wants to be right next to you but he has no problem going potty outside in the rain
*Not used to kids, dogs or cats / ideally Erwin would be the only animal in the house. He does tolerate other animals and kids as long as they are not wild/excited and mind their own business
*Erwin is an inside dog and cannot tolerate hot weather, he needs A/C
If you are interested in adopting Erwin or know anyone who might be interested in adopting Erwin, please email me ASAP. Erwin is located in the Northern Suburbs of Chicago.
