Alfie's Story

Hi there! I'm Alfie, and I am officially ready to start my new life as your professional lap-warmer! <br/><br/>I'm a 7-year-old Yorkshire Terrier mix weighing in at a sturdy 13 lbs., and let me tell you, I have a storied past, but I'd rather move forward with love and a wagging tail than look backwards. <br/><br/>When I first arrived, I was feeling a bit weighed down (and a lot of messy, matted fur), but after a much-needed, heavy-duty spa day , I am feeling light, fresh, and fancy-free!<br/><br/>I am also a total social butterfly . If there is a person in the room, I want to be their best friend! I'm an attention-lover who will lean right into you or hop into your lap the second I get the chance. I'm also a big fan of other dogs. I think everyone is just great! I haven't met any cats yet, so I'm not sure how I feel about them, but I'm definitely a "people person."<br/><br/>A few fun facts about me:<br/><br/><br/> <br/> Cheese is life: I will do just about anything for a little cheesy snack! <br/> <br/> <br/> Kibble over canned: I'm a crunch lover! I'm not a fan of wet food, so keep the dry stuff coming. <br/> <br/> <br/> Housetrained: I have impeccable house manners and I wait to do my business outside. <br/> <br/> <br/> Easy walker: I'm a dream on a leash and love a good stroll. <br/> <br/> <br/> Happy & Wiggly: I'm just a sweet, joyful guy who wants to meet everyone in the room! <br/> <br/><br/><br/>Despite my bumpy journey, I haven't let it dampen my spirit for a second. I'm just a lovely, happy boy looking for a forever home where I can get lots of cuddles (and cheese). <br/><br/>Could I be the missing piece to your family?
