About Alan

Alan is a sweet and sensitive young dog looking for his forever home. Friends at the shelter describe him as gentle and a bit shy, which makes him all the more endearing. He walks calmly on the leash and enjoys his time outdoors, though he really shines when he receives gentle pets and affection. With a little patience, he’ll open up and show his true self. He thrives on connection and appears eager to bond with a loving family. Alan has shared his kennel peacefully with another pup at PACC and has been social during playgroup sessions, so he's likely to get along well with other dogs. He’ll need a little time to acclimate to a new environment, so a patient adopter who understands his needs would be ideal. Ask to meet Alan today!
