About Alice

Meet Alice, a delightful one-and-a-half-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback mix. Weighing in at sixty-six pounds, she’s fully potty-trained and strikes a perfect balance between playful pup and affectionate couch potato. Alice enjoys having the freedom to roam around the house and loves snuggling up close to her humans on the bed or couch. She gets along well with cats and currently shares her space with a variety of dogs. Though she can be a bit anxious meeting new dogs, a slower introduction helps her warm up. With a fondness for human companionship, Alice experiences some separation anxiety, but having other pets helps ease her nerves. This smart girl responds well to verbal commands and likes her mealtime to be peaceful. While she hasn’t been tested with children, she would thrive as either a cherished only dog or with a loving active family who can keep her entertained and shower her with affection. Alice is based in Houston, TX, and can be transported to most states for an additional fee. Ready to add some joy to your home? Apply to adopt her today!
