Alvin Michael's Story

Meet Alvin <br/><br/>Pulled from a local shelter by NTASR, Alvin came to rescue heartworm positive — but thanks to loving care and successful treatment, he is now completely heartworm negative and ready for his forever home! At about 71⁄2 years young, Alvin is the definition of an easy-going gentleman. <br/>He is: <br/>• ✔️ Crate trained<br/>• ✔️ Leash trained <br/>• ✔️ Polite indoor housemate <br/>• ✔️ Fully house trained <br/><br/>He sleeps soundly through the night and won’t make a peep until morning. The only “rule” he might gently bend? He believes couches were designed specifically for sharing with his people — and honestly, he’s right. <br/><br/>Alvin is happiest simply being near you. He’ll lovingly press his gentle head into your hand for rubs, offer soft kisses, then wander off to his bed for a cozy nap. <br/>His favorite moments in life are: <br/>• When you walk through the door <br/>• Mealtime (he takes this very seriously) <br/>• Treat time <br/>• Quiet petting sessions <br/><br/>And when he gets excited? He does the most adorable little prance that will absolutely steal your heart. Alvin gets along well with other dogs and is wonderfully unbothered by them. He’s not much for play — he’s more of a “you do you, I’ll be over here relaxing” kind of guy. Calm, steady, and affectionate, he brings a peaceful presence wherever he goes. If you’re looking for a loyal companion, a professional couch snuggler, and a sweet old-soul best friend, Alvin is your man.
