Alfie's Story

Meet Alfie – The Resilient Shepherd Mix with a Heart of Gold <br/><br/>Alfie’s life started off a bit rough– we’re talking dumped on the streets, living in fear, following other dogs for safety kind of rough. But this soulful 1.5-year-old, 65-pound Shepherd mix is no longer the timid, street-smart wanderer. He’s now a full-time cuddler, treat lover, and loyal best friend ready to build deep, meaningful bonds with the right humans.<br/>Alfie is the kind of dog who doesn’t need much—just a cozy spot near his humans and a little love go a long way. He’s happiest when he’s close by, keeping you company. Whether you're working from home or relaxing on the couch, Alfie will be your calm and constant sidekick.<br/>But don’t let his laid-back nature fool you—Alfie also has a playful side! He loves his toys and is always up for a game of fetch. His tail wags the fastest when he’s outdoors, enjoying walks, sniffing the breeze, and exploring the world one paw at a time.<br/><br/>Ideal Home:<br/>-Dog-friendly family (bonus points for medium/large dog siblings).<br/>-Adults and older kids who are ready to snuggle a sweet, soulful boy.<br/>-Someone with the patience to manage slow intros with cats (because Alfie’s not rushing into anything).<br/>-A home where he can thrive in a calm, loving environment, knowing he’s safe and appreciated.<br/><br/>*If you are interested in Alfie please submit an inquiry at rescueatxdogs.org/adoptionapp.
