Alvin thrives on outdoor adventures—running, playing catch, and exploring his surroundings while savoring every interesting scent he encounters. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs, including smaller ones, and loves a rousing game of tug with his Great Dane foster brother. Super smart and eager to learn, he knows how to sit and is being trained to patiently wait for his meals. With his treat-driven motivation, Alvin is ready for continued training and new tricks. Housetrained and crate trained, he’s comfortable in his crate without a fuss. After expending all that energy, he transforms into a snuggly companion, enjoying cuddle time with his humans. An active family will be the perfect fit for Alvin, giving him the chance to play, explore, learn, and cuddle. He promises to be a happy, goofy sidekick who fits right into the family.
