Lhatese Mix - Brando

Brando, 2 yr, Lhatese Mix

While we are not positive about the origins of our dog Brando, since he was a rescue, it was noted on his adoption card that he is a Lhapso Apso Mix and clearly that mix includes Maltese for his look and characteristics.

The groomer thinks there is some Bichon there as well because of his hair texture. He has a great laid back temperament and is very healthy. He has consumed a good amount of chocolate, by accident, on more then one occasion with no effect whatsover. I think he actually loves chocolate.

He is happy to go for walks or just snuggle up on your lap and nap like most Maltese. He loves kids and always stops to get pet by them whether or not the child is interested. He is also eager to let us know if someone is at the door - a nod to his Lhapso ancestry. He is very clever in his tactics to get treats or food, but that's probably typical of a dog. He is great company and gentle in nature.
