About Alpha

Meet Alpha, a charming young fellow born on November 22. He’s not just a mixed breed; he’s a smart and eager learner who’s ready for his forever home. Alpha has already mastered crate and potty training, settling down quietly in his crate. He thrives with other dogs and would enjoy having a playful buddy, but he’s just as happy being your one and only. Affectionate and cuddly, he loves spending quality time with his people. Notable commands like “sit,” “leave it,” “load up,” and “go potty” are already in his repertoire. He’s currently honing his on-leash skills, and his food motivation makes training an enjoyable experience. If you're looking for a playful, intelligent companion, Alpha is your guy. His adoption fee has been generously sponsored by his foster mom. Start your journey together and apply to adopt!
