About Alani

Alani is a petite 1.5-year-old at about 32 lbs, though her pictures might make her look bigger than she really is. She's a burst of playful, athletic energy and makes a strong impression with her friendly, social attitude around other dogs. Always ready to adapt her play style, Alani thrives with canine companions and would love a dog sibling to share daily zoomies and adventures. Crate trained and a solid sleeper through the night, Alani is also a good leash walker—though her enthusiasm can show when something catches her attention. She's happiest meeting people and new surroundings, but big noises like thunderstorms or fireworks can send her looking for shelter. Because her excitement ramps up into full-on running fits, Alani would do best with older kids who can keep up and aren’t easily knocked over. She isn’t house trained yet, and she's still refining her manners—especially when greeting people with energetic jumps—but she warms up quickly, loves affection, and responds well to loving structure. Alani does not get along with cats. She’s looking for someone willing to give her the guidance and companionship she craves, and she promises plenty of laughs and loyalty in return.
