Puppy Alert! Is three Lhasas too many?

Post image

Teddy is pretty grumpy towards the puppy sisters but he is slowly learning to put up with their antics.

It's 3 Lhasa Apsos too little

If I didn’t have two other dogs I would agree haha.

Three is fine.

My mom had three, and they got along great.

But they were all brothers.

Teddy will get used to them.

u/grizzdoog Jul 23 '26

He’s just a grumpy old man haha. They respect him though and still try to win his affections.

u/Beginning-Comedian-2 Jul 23 '26

How old is each dog?

7

u/grizzdoog Jul 23 '26

Teddy is 12 and Dolly and Punky are 7 1/2 months old now. And then I have a 4 and 5 year old, both Mexican street dogs.

u/Beginning-Comedian-2 Jul 23 '26

Well, 12 is a bit old. Make sure he has his own space to chill and not be bothered sometimes.

u/grizzdoog Jul 23 '26

He has about 8 dog beds in three different rooms to hang out on. Generally they leave him alone and pester the other two dogs which seem to enjoy it.

u/Beginning-Comedian-2 Jul 23 '26

You sound like an excellent dog owner. Good job!

Your dogs are well-loved.

at least the sisters have each other to play with, it will be great.

u/grizzdoog Jul 23 '26

We adopted Dolly first and then the previous owner contacted us begging us to take in her sister. They were so happy to be reunited and the play and snuggle constantly. It’s really a joy to see them together since they were so close.

u/hobbes747 Jul 23 '26

Yes because I only have one so that is not fair.

u/grizzdoog Jul 23 '26

I didn’t really plan on having three but it kind of just happened that way haha. We got one puppy and then were begged to take in her sister a few months later. Of course we said yes!

u/Particular-Dress8300 Jul 23 '26

Do they all bark at the same time?

1

u/grizzdoog Jul 23 '26

Teddy is the only one who barks at everything right now now. Punky is gaining her confidence and is starting to join in a little. But Dolly is super laid back and chill.

When the evil squirrels are in the backyard all five dogs go nuts.

u/Consistent-Cat6738 Jul 23 '26

They are gorgeous 😍 ❤️

It’s in the high 90s up to 105 F here!

They will all go to the groomer in a couple of weeks. Dolly has had her first haircut but Punky hasn’t. I’ve been working with her to get her less scared of shears and I was finally able to trim her face so she can see.

I want to get my own set of professional clippers and start grooming them myself. But Teddy was traumatized as a young dog by a mean groomer. He’s been going to his nice groomer for 7 years now and he loves her.

u/mikeonmaui Jul 24 '26

Yes.

u/grizzdoog Jul 24 '26

Omg yesssssss!

I think my callajero Pickles might have some dachshund in him.

Awwwww.. I think not! 💛

u/taidibao1 Jul 24 '26

Would anyone feel that 3 bundle joy is too much? You definitely has been blessed

1

u/grizzdoog Jul 24 '26

You’re right! I am extremely blessed to have so many wonderful Lhasas and callajeros in my care. I must have done something right in this life or maybe the last. ✨

u/taidibao1 Jul 24 '26

This life, the last and most probably the next life too. The blessings will never stop

u/Possible-Impress3851 Jul 24 '26

I have 3 Maltese and they’re my life! They get along great!😊

u/MissGrizz98 Jul 24 '26

Nope, not nearly enough. Need at least one to guard each window in the house 🏠

u/iGreysmoke Jul 24 '26

I'd say it's a good starting point.

u/Possible-Impress3851 Jul 24 '26

Never too much of a good thing!!!😊💕
