Alfie is a sweet and snuggly companion who also enjoys playful moments. He is crate trained and should adapt well to house training once he settles into a routine. Recently neutered and fully vetted, Alfie is up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, and microchipped. His adoption fee is $450, which covers all essentials, including his shots and neutering. The adoption process involves a completed application, vet check, home check, and a final contract.
