About Alfie - 7 Week Old Staffy X Bulldog X (Trial)
**Meet Alfie: 7 week old Staffy x Bulldog mixed breed, your future furry family member!**
Are you ready to meet the most adorable 7-week-old puppy with a personality as big as his puppy eyes? Introducing Alfie, the pint-sized bundle of joy who’s currently seeking his forever family!
- **Toilet Training Triumph:** Alfie’s already a pro at the toileting business. He’s mostly got the whole “going outside” thing down and only needs a bit of help with the “not chewing your shoe laces” part.
- **Smart and good looking:** This little guy is not just cute; he’s also smart! Alfie is already learning basic obedience. His favorite trick? Looking adorable while mastering the “sit” command. He waits for his food, but can get chatty if you make him wait too long 🤣
- **Cuddly & Comedic:** When Alfie’s not busy plotting world domination (a.k.a. your heart), he’s snuggling up and making you laugh. His secret talent? Turning any day into a snuggle-fest. He loves drives in the car and is on his best behaviour as your ride-or-die.
**Perfect for You If…**
You’re in need of a new best friend who’s always up for a game, a cuddle session, a drive and a puppaccino, or a good laugh at his playful antics. Alfie’s got enough love to go around and promises to keep you smiling every day.
Ready to make Alfie a part of your life? Come meet him today and discover how he’ll steal your heart in seconds!
*Adopt Alfie – because every day should start with puppy kisses
He has been very well socialised with other puppies and adult dogs (small and large) and gets along well with them all. He's met lots of people and is friendly and affectionate with them.
Alfie will grow up to be a medium yet chunky dog. We always recommend puppy-training classes to give your new family member the best start in life. All dogs and puppies need plenty of affection, exercise, and training.
It would be a big plus if you have a friendly adult dog as a teacher, companion and playmate for Alfie. If you don't have another dog to keep him company, then there needs to be someone in the household that doesn't work full time.
Alfie needs to be welcome inside when people are home, and to sleep inside. He will be wonderful family dog and is suitable for children 5 years and older. You need a decent yard with good fencing with no small gaps. He can't go to rural fencing (eg: mesh or wire).
Alfie's adoption fee is $700 which includes his desexing when he is old enough. It also includes his first two vaccinations. He has been treated for fleas and worms, and is microchipped.
Alfie is in foster care in Belmont North, NSW. Since he is not yet desexed, he is only available for adoption to the Lower Hunter region (Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Port Stephens, Maitland and Cessnock) plus Central Coast and Sydney. He'll need to be returned to one of our approved vets for desexing before the age of 6 months old.
To apply to meet Alfie, please fill out our Adoption Questionnaire https://tinyurl.com/drnadopt
