About This Dog

Alfred's ideal home

Meet Alfred, a lovely 9-year-old boy who may need a little time to get to know you, but has a wonderful personality waiting to shine through! Alfred can be wary when meeting new people and prefers to say hello in his own time, with a particular fondness for female company. When Alfred first arrived with his foster family, he was feeling very worried, but with patience, understanding and time to settle, he has blossomed into a lovely house guest. He is playful with toys and enjoys chasing them and playing raggy games, although fetching isn’t really his thing! Alfred loves to get out and about for walks, where he enjoys following his nose and is confident meeting other dogs. He can be quite independent at times, but he certainly appreciates a good bum scratch once he feels comfortable. Alfred is housetrained (odd accident may occur as he adjusts) and travels well in the car . He would love a home where his boundaries are respected and he can build trust at his own pace.

Could you be Alfred's perfect match?

Alfred is looking for a patient and understanding home that will allow him the time and space he needs to settle in and show off his cheeky, playful side. He could potentially share his home with another well-matched dog (neutered if female), as he is confident when meeting his canine friends out on walks. Alfred can live with secondary-school-aged children who understand that he needs a little space while getting to know them. However, he cannot live with cats or small furries. If you’re looking for a companion who enjoys leisurely sniffy walks, playful moments and the quieter pleasures of home life, and you’re happy to let a friendship develop naturally, Alfred could be the perfect little chap for you. ❤️
