About Alfa

Alfa, also known as Alfie, barely survived the shelter system—he was nearly euthanized after being left in a kennel for 45 days. Confinement took its toll, but once free, he blossomed fast. This Husky went through careful rehab and came out the other side as a happy, loving, laid-back companion. He loves his people and listens well on leash walks, showing a steady, chill energy. Alfa gets along well with other large dogs but isn't a fit for homes with cats due to his prey drive and should not live with small dogs. He’s eager to please and sharp: even an experienced behaviorist called him one of the quickest learners they’d met. Alfa is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and about three years old. If you want a Husky who’s bounced back from hardship and is ready to love, Alfa’s waiting in Inglewood, CA. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
