About Alfie

Adoption Fee: 15
Sealyham Terrier mix
Age: Senior
Sex: Male

This handsome gentleman needs a good retirement home! My partner and I found this little fella abandoned in our neighborhood. He wasn't scared of us at all and wanted soooo the belly rubs, but he was in really rough shape and we didn't have room for another dog (two already in a 900 sqft house), so we took him to the Arizona Humane Society. AHS got him a much needed haircut, de-ticked him, made sure he was quarantined, and put him on antibiotics to clear his system. Unfortunately due to a heart murmur and old age, Alfie is unable to be handle anesthesia. Since that means he can't be neutered, the Humane Society ruled him unadoptable and planned to put him down. Considering Alfie (as we started calling him) is still pain free and friendlier than ever, we couldn't let him die just for having all his parts. We are currently looking for senior dog sanctuaries or a good household who will enjoy sharing a home with this mellow grandpa for the rest of his golden days. Could be two months, could be two years, and will need heart meds. But he's full of love and snuggles with plenty of joy to bring to someone's family. Alfie loves cheese and snuggles. He would do well as an only dog or fellow seniors with a soft touch. Wet food will be best since he's missing so many teeth, but he eats individual kibble pieces just fine. I'm willing to drive anywhere in Arizona to make sure this sweet little pup gets all the love and attention he deserves.
