Alex's Story

Alex is such a little ham and has quickly earned the nickname “Meatball” in our house because he is one thick little boy with the cutest short legs!<br/><br/>He is adventurous, brave, and curious and absolutely loves exploring outside. He plays great with our resident dog and is wonderful with the young kids in the house. Once he’s done playing and exploring, he is more than happy to climb right into your lap for some cuddles.<br/><br/>Alex is also making huge strides with potty training! He can already go long stretches without an accident, goes potty every time we take him outside, and sleeps in his kennel at night.<br/><br/>And can we talk about how handsome he is?! He has the sweetest spotted ear and such beautiful black-and-white markings.<br/><br/>Alex is the perfect combination of playful, adventurous, cuddly, and ridiculously cute. This little guy is going to make one lucky family very happy! <br/><br/>Alex is estimated to be 9 weeks old and 11 lbs. Since we don’t know the dog’s actual genetics, this is just a guess on breed and size when grown. All dogs have had a vet examination, are up to date on all vaccinations, and have been given dewormer and heartworm prevention. Dogs over 7 months have been heartworm tested. <br/><br/>If you are interested in meeting this dog please complete the adoption application on our website at https://safehandsrescue.org/adoption-process/ and then we can contact you about setting up a meeting.<br/><br/>Saturday, August 29, 11:00 am-1:00 pm, Pet Evolution, 5217 Excelsior Blvd, St Louis Park, MN 55416 https://www.facebook.com/events/26971052572488251<br/><br/>Saturday, September 5, 12:00-2:00 pm, Big Wood Brewery, 3429 Centerville Rd, Vadnais Heights, MN 55127 https://www.facebook.com/events/2842656716133657
