Name: Lasso
Gender: Male
Breed: Mixed Breed
Age: 1 year old
Weight: 35 pounds
Current Location: Ijamsville, MD
Good With: Other dogs!
Personality:
Lasso made his freedom flight from Kosovo and now brings his international charm to everything he does. His sweet and gentle demeanor shines through in every interaction, whether meeting new canine friends or exploring his surroundings. This sweet young pup finds joy in life's simple pleasures - he loves playing with other doggy friends, exploring the backyard, and cuddling with his stuffed toys. His gentle calm nature makes him a wonderful companion.
Training Ability:
Despite being new to the United States, Lasso already shows excellent indoor manners. He's house-trained and takes naturally to crate training, sleeping soundly through the night. His leash skills are developing nicely, and he's eager to learn more with positive reinforcement. Lasso also tends to be protective of his home will sound the alert ensuring that we always feel safe and secure.
Social Skills:
Lasso has come a long way since he arrived in the US but will still need someone willing to be patient and allow him to go at his own speed when in new environments. He will need another dog in the home who can show him the ropes and help build his confidence. He would be a wonderful companion for someone(s) who enjoys having a friend to hang around and keep them company.
Perfect Home Would Include:
- An adults-only home in a quiet neighborhood.
- Preferably a fenced-in backyard that he can explore/sniff around in at his own pace.
- Dog siblings for play sessions and to help him feel comfortable in his new home.
- Continued positive reinforcement training.
- A patient family willing to help him adjust to American life.

All adult dogs, cats, and kittens are altered prior to adoption. Puppies too young to be altered at the time of adoption must be brought to our partner vet in Ashland, VA for spay or neuter paid for by Operation Paws for Homes by 6 months of age. Adopters may choose to have the procedure done at their own vet before 6 months of age and be reimbursed the amount that the rescue would pay our partner vet in Ashland.
This dog's bio is based off the experiences of the foster and/or volunteers of OPH as well as any information that we received from the shelter or previous owner. This is very important because it means that while they may act one way in the foster’s home, you may experience something different in your home.
