About Alfie Sweet and playful

Meet Alfie! Hi there! Alfie is almost 2 years old, weighing in at a cheerful 15 pounds. This little guy is brimming with happiness, confidence, and a playful spirit. A true people-lover, he thrives on making new friends and enjoys being part of whatever you’re up to. Alfie is a big fan of dogs of all sizes, so having a playful canine buddy would make him thrilled. He’s friendly and eager to play. As for cats, he adores them a little too much. A dog-savvy cat who can handle his playful energy would be the ideal companion for him. Kids? Alfie is great with them, but being young, he can get a tad nippy when he's excited. He's learning to channel his energy, so a family that can keep guiding him will be perfect. Crate training? Alfie's got that covered too. He settles down best when he’s had exercise and some mental stimulation. When boredom strikes, he might express his excitement a bit too loudly. Alfie is in search of a happy, confident family that enjoys an adventurous little companion. Rescued from Texas, he’s currently looking for a foster-to-adopt family in the northern states, with transport occurring every other weekend to his new home. You’ll get a few weeks to see if he’s the right fit! If you’ve made it this far, let's meet up!
