Dogs In need
I am home now, home now
I've been waiting for forever to find you, to find you
I'm not alone now, alone now
Cuz you've taken in my heart from the cold
All I know is every time I look into your eyes I'm home

Nana 5/25/2011 
Eatontown, NJ - USA
Nana is a red-gold female approximately 1.5 years of age. She was found as a stray and has been in the Monmouth County SPCA in New Jersey since March of 2011. The evaluation by the staff at the shelter has been extensive and reports that Nana presents as a typical independent and purposeful TM. She is a very engaging and playful girl. She is adaptable to many dogs. She likes to mingle with people she trusts. It has been identified that Nana will need some help becoming more comfortable with leash-training. Because her past history is unknown, it is uncertain whether Nana has been raised around children but she does not seem to do well around cats. Nana is now microchipped for identification, has been recently spayed, dewormed and is up to date on her shots. Staff recommend a permanent home with a secure fenced yard.
Nana is now with ATMA Rescue, please contact them if you are interested in providing a home for this girl:
The volunteers at TM Info encourage new owners to seek the mentorship of responsible and knowledgeable breeders in the relocation of any Tibetan Mastiff.

Alice |
We are looking to place an approximately 2-year old Tibetan Mastiff female named Alice. Alice came to rescue from a kennel in Port Coquitlam, B.C. Canada where she was waiting for her 3rd owner to find her a new home. Other than that fact, we have no information about her history.
While she is on the small side, Alice is also very thin. She is currently weighing 36 kg (80 lbs) but could very easily handle another 5 kg (10-11 lbs). When Alice came into foster care, she was suffering from entropion but this condition was surgically corrected in February 2010. The photos reflect the shaved areas from her surgery. She also had broken both her upper canines which we believe was the result of trying to get out of a small confined space. (She becomes frantic to the point of self-injury when kenneled.) Her broken canines are scheduled to be extracted shortly. This girl is already spayed, her vaccinations are up to date and she has been dewormed.
When Alice first came to us, she understandably appeared to be very needy and fearful of being abandoned, but she has quickly adjusted to spending the day with our male and female TM without demanding our attention. She gets along with other dogs if they are her size or larger. She is very affectionate, loves to play, enjoys cuddles and belly rubs. She is energetic and boisterous with her new friends and is perfectly happy in our fenced yard. She has an understanding of basic obedience training commands such as sit, down and come. She is housebroken and has demonstrated no destructive behavior. Alice has a dominant but not aggressive temperament. While we have no children living here, she has been very well behaved when introduced to children. Regardless, we always recommend adult supervision when children are near. She is absolutely NOT trustworthy around cats.
As is true with most Tibetan Mastiffs, Alice is very strong and stubborn but we believe that she will make a wonderful companion for an experienced big dog owner who can give her lots of exercise and a daily routine.

Mae & Makai have found a new home together
in Ohio!
 |
| Mae |
 |
|
Makai |
These very sweet dogs are in need of a home due to the misfortune
of their owner who has lost her own home. Mae and Makai were bred
by Donald Davis, a US breeder who passed away last year, so Himalaya
Tibetan Mastiffs and Sa Nashoba Tibetatan Mastiffs are working
together to find them a new home. Mae's registered name is Mei
Xiang Saje and her date of birth is Jan. 22, 2001. Her dam is Kyra
Rose and her sire is Ely Tanuk. Mae is spayed and in excellent
health. Her vaccinations are up to date. Makai was never registered
by his owner, but he is a brother to Mae from a later breeding.
His date of birth is February 12, 2003. He is also in apparently
excellent health and he is intact. Any prospective home will have
to agree to have him neutered.
These dogs are in Chesapeake, Virginia and are
being fostered by Susie Ochsenbein. These dogs are beautifully
behaved and easy to handle. Both dogs are a used to being outside
more than inside. They would make lovely pets for someone who is
willing to open their heart to two very deserving dogs.

Simba & Sheba - Have Found a Home Together!
Black & Tan 4 Year Old Male
Gold 4 Year Old Female
A family with two Tibetan Mastiffs is looking to place their two
dogs as family pets in a loving forever home. The son of the current
owners has developed severe allergies to all of their household
animals and so they have decided to place them up for adoption.
Male: His call name is Simba and
he is 4 years old. He is a black & tan male and is already
neutered. A boy with a mild temperament but he does like to bark
during the evening hours so he will have to be brought indoors
at night. He has had TPLO surgery performed on both knees some
time ago but he has had no more problems since.
Female: Her call name is Sheba and
she is also 4 years old. Sheba is a gold sable and is already spayed.
This pretty girl is a little more shy than her buddy Simba but
still has a mild temperament.
Simba and Sheba have been raised as house pets and are used to
playing in a fenced yard. They have been well-socialized. Also
included in the family were 2 cats and the dogs were loving and
cuddled with them.
Both dogs have been raised together since their owners received
them at 12 weeks of age so the family and foster care are asking
that both Tibetan Mastiffs be adopted and welcomed as a team if
possible. They have already lost their family, we would hate for
them to be separated at this point in their lives.
Simba's breeder has taken on the responsibility
for fostering and re-homing both dogs. The dogs are in Colorado
until the first week of June but will then be traveling to Virginia
where they will live in foster care until a suitable home can be
found. Please contact Traci Nelson for more information if you
are interested in adopting one or both of these Tibetan Mastiffs
in need.

Joe Bear - has found a home!
Black & Tan Neutered 1.5 Year Old Male
Joe Bear wandered into someone's backyard and instantly won their
heart. Unfortunately the lady was ederly and not in a position
to keep him. He is currently staying in a foster home and they
find him to be absolutely wonderful. They have reported that he
is gentle as can be. He is excellent with all the other dogs there,
horses, pygmy goats, cats, ducks, geese and chickens. They have
a teenaged daughter whose friends are over all the time and Joe
Bear is a perfect gentleman. He is neutered, vaccinated, dewormed
and was tested/cleared for heartworm and is receiving HW prevention.
Please contact ADAR Animal Rescue for more information
if you are interested in adopting this Tibetan Mastiff in need.

Nate has found a home!
Black & Tan Male
Well, Nate left for his new home in Utah last Sat.
morning. His new mom, Patti, flew in Friday night, rented an SUV
and spent the night with us and Nate so we all felt comfortable
with the placement. She was wonderful, and Nate liked her immediately.
She was on the floor with him from the moment he walked in, loving
and kissing him, he was in heaven. They got up and were on the
road by 8:30 the next morning. She made it to Utah from Indiana
by Sunday night. Nate and her were real road warriors. Nate traveled
fine, she would stop every few hours to walk him and give him a
pee break. We had loaded the car up with blankets and treats so
he was riding in the lap of luxury!!! It's only been 4 days but
he is doing very well. Playing with her teenage boys and romping
all through the house. They also purchased and had built before
he came home a 10 x 20 run with a top on it beside the house under
some big trees so he can enjoy the outdoors without fear of him
getting loose. He is sleeping in what ever bedroom he chooses to
at night and lays around and watches TV with the family in the
evenings. I think this is a good match and Patti and her family
could not be happier. Patti's mom and dad also live near by and
he walks every day too and will be stopping by in the afternoons
to take Nate along when he can. Nate will have more attention then
he could have dreamed of. They may even get a friend for Nate once
he is settled and knows he is at home.
Thank you to Dena McKenna for working so hard to
find this boy a loving home!
