Alex came to us after being abandoned, left behind when his owners moved. Now, he’s ready to find a fresh start with a loving forever family that will never leave him behind again. Alex, along with his buddy Nathan, lived in a home where they got along well with one another and other dogs. We always suggest meet and greets with other dogs and children before adoption to ensure a great match. While we don’t know how he does with cats, he has a playful and friendly demeanor that might work well in many households. Alex is a 3-year-old neutered male Beagle mix, weighing approximately 30.60 pounds. He enjoys being talked to, especially when treated like a baby, and while he can be a bit nervous in new settings, he warms up quickly. Each adoptable pet at our shelter is spayed/neutered, microchipped, and current on all necessary vaccinations. We encourage new adopters to establish vet care for their furry companions to ensure ongoing health and happiness. If you’re interested in welcoming Alex into your home, please remember the 3-3-3 rule for adopting a shelter pet: 3 days for him to decompress, 3 weeks to settle in, and 3 months to build trust. Alex's adoption fee is $40; he’s ready for a loving home! Visit us at 430 Bristol Drive in Statesville, NC, to meet him during our adoption hours, Monday-Friday from 12-5pm and Saturdays from 11am-2pm. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let’s get started.
