17-04-26 Alfie is a very sensitive boy who has come into our care from a breeder in search of a new start. He is very nervous at the moment and can feel a little overwhelmed when being handled as this is very new to him. He is also worried when approaching people, but he remains very gentle in nature.

Alfie gets on wonderfully with his kennel friends, perhaps a little too well at times! He has been quite amorous with them and has needed a brief separation, but hopefully now he is castrated this will reduce. Alfie relies on the company of other dogs for comfort and because of this, he will need a kind and steady resident dog in his new home to help guide him and give him the reassurance he needs as he settles in and finds his paws.

As Alfie has never lived in a home before, he will need to learn all about house training and the general basics of home life. He is already doing very well with walking on a harness, so once he is settled, he would enjoy one or two gentle walks around the local area.

Due to his nervous nature, Alfie will need a calm and quiet home where he can relax and settle into his new surroundings without too much hustle and bustle. A calm and patient environment will help him feel safe and build confidence at his own pace.

Alfie is a kind and gentle boy who is trying his best to be brave. With time, patience, and the support of another dog, he will begin to feel more secure and show his true, loving nature.

Alfie has been treated for suspected cystitis.

He has a travel document.
