About Alex

Meet Alex! This adorable three-month-old terrier mix came to us from a rural county shelter. He's a small bundle of joy, weighing in at just 10 lbs, and we expect he'll reach around 30 lbs when fully grown, though that's an estimate. Alex is friendly with everyone he encounters and is incredibly affectionate once he gets some kisses and treats. Although he can be a bit shy initially, he quickly warms up to you and will melt in your arms. Alex is playful and full of curiosity about the world around him. As with any puppy, he will need training and socialization after being adopted to help him thrive. Great news—he's already dog-friendly and would do well in a home with children, making him a perfect companion for families. With proper love and care, Alex's life can be all about joy and adventure. Could you be the one to give him the happy life he deserves? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
