About Alex

Alex and his siblings were just tiny babies when their mother, Elyse, was rescued from an unfortunate situation in California. A caring foster family from Boxers and Buddies took them in, providing safety and love as they grew up. Though they think Alex might be a mix of Chihuahua and Poodle, his breed is still a charming mystery. This little guy is full of charisma and ready to find a forever home. To ensure they become well-rounded pups, future families must continue their socialization and introduce them to new experiences. Alex will require professional obedience training from a certified trainer, which is necessary for all adoptions. He gets along well with cats, dogs, and children, making him an ideal addition to many households. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
