About Alvin
Meet Alvin! This wonderful 6-year-old, 51-pound neutered male Lab/Hound mix is the perfect blend of happy-go-lucky and loyal companion. He still has plenty of energy for adventures and embodies all the best qualities of a mature dog. If you're searching for a best friend to join you on walks, hikes, or trips to the dog park, Alvin is your guy! Alvin is up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, house trained, and knows his basic commands. A social butterfly, he thrives on human interaction and has done great in doggy playgroups. Regular trips to the dog park make him particularly happy as he loves making new friends. Though he's friendly, he appreciates slow introductions, especially with other dogs, as he does best with submissive pups. While Alvin adores being around people, he will need a home without cats or small critters—his hound instincts drive him to chase. Plus, he tends to get overly excited when meeting visitors, so some training on manners will help him refine that enthusiasm. Alvin would thrive in an active family with a securely fenced yard and humans who appreciate a fun-loving canine with a big personality and a bigger heart. If you’re looking for a loyal hiking buddy, a playful dog park enthusiast, and a devoted friend, Alvin is eager to meet you. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
