Has basic training
Only dog in the home (needs ongoing training)
Open to meet children 10+
Meet Alf!
Alfalfa's got a big heart, a bright brain, and a fun-loving personality.
With his infectious spirit and adorable head tilt this boisterous boy is on the hunt for home to call his own.
Affectionate and adventurous, he's ready to dive right in and would fit perfectly into a home with older kids as he is quite strong and tends to forget just how big he actually is.
He would need to be your one and only dog soaking up all that love for himself.
As other dogs make him nervous ongoing training and socialization will be key for this little Rascal so an experienced owner is ideal, someone who understands that his reaction to other dogs is his way showing he is overwhelmed and doesn't know how else to behave.
Luckily this treat enthusiast loves to work and learn almost as much as he loves to play, so with a handy snack and an empathetic approach training will be a piece of cake!
If you're searching for a sweet, goofy and affectionate boy who's yearning for the right home to help him be his best self and return your love tenfold then Sweet Alf is your man!
Medical notes
No known pre-existing conditions.

With all animals it’s important to understand that going into a new environment with new people may not be as flawless as we want it to be. It’s important to know that these animals have unknown histories. Most left in the shelter by their owners. The information we receive is from observing the animal’s behaviours & reactions to certain stimuli whilst in our care. Adopted animals can take up to 3 months to properly decompress from post-shelter life & a lot of behaviours & quirks will surface during this time. All that we ask is that their new owners have an open mind & are patient.
So please keep in touch with us after adoption so that we can help you settle your new family member in and address any unexpected behaviours.
The adoption fee for dogs covers C5 vaccination, health check, heartworm testing, desexing, micro-chipping, and registration.
The adoption fee for cats covers F3 vaccination, health check, desexing, micro-chipping, and registration.
