He values companionship, gentle routines, and affection above all else.<br/><br/>His ideal home includes:<br/><br/>• A family or individual who enjoys a loyal sidekick for both quiet moments and light play<br/><br/>• Respectful children who will be kind and gentle with him<br/><br/>• Friendly dogs (optional but welcome!)<br/><br/>• A household that offers consistency, affection, and stability<br/><br/>• A peaceful environment where he can feel safe and loved<br/><br/>Above all, Alvin is searching for a forever home where his sweet nature is cherished and where love is shared freely.<br/><br/>Alvin's Rescue Story<br/><br/>Alvin was found wandering the streets of Guadalajara for several days—alone, confused, and vulnerable—until a kind rescuer was finally able to earn his trust and bring him to safety.<br/><br/>Despite his circumstances, Alvin remained calm and gentle, and it quickly became clear that he had once belonged to a family—he was already neutered, a quiet sign that someone had cared for him before.<br/><br/>Sadly, like so many dogs in Mexico, Alvin appears to have been abandoned just before Christmas, left behind during a time meant for warmth and family. Yet even after this heartbreak, he never lost his trusting and loving nature. Once rescued, Alvin adapted beautifully, showing just how easy-going and affectionate he truly is. Today, he is safe, cared for, and ready to begin a bright new chapter with a family who will never leave him behind again.<br/><br/>Location: Currently in MexicoTravel: Alvin will travel once a committed 10-day trial is secured<br/><br/>Adoption Fee: $600<br/><br/>Interested in adopting Alvin?<br/><br/>Apply at www.northwestwagrescue.org<br/><br/>Alvin is ready to give his whole heart—he's just waiting for someone to say yes
