Alfie (On Trial 9/7/13)

Hi, my name's Alfie and I’m looking for a forever home. I’m 9 months old and probably have a bit of Dalmatian in me. I’m super social and absolutely love EVERYONE: kids, adults, dogs (big and small) and even cats!

My foster family has a cat who doesn’t seem to like me much. I leave him alone but remember to flash him a smile and a tail wag now and then; I’m sure he’ll come around eventually and one day we will be great friends.

I’m in heaven while in the company of a loving human. I’m not much of a barker and my foster family has even left me alone in the backyard a few times while they were out and I have always been a very good boy.

Given I’m only new to this awesome life indoors with loving people, I am still learning the house rules. I’m proving to be a fast learner though, especially when rewarded with treats and praise.

My foster family won’t let me sleep on their bed, but that’s okay because they’ve made me a comfy bed of my own next to them; I just love it! I am medium size now and probably won't get a lot bigger.

I’m not sure how to play ‘fetch the ball’ just yet but I REALLY hope my new family will teach me because I’m pretty sure I’ll become really good at it one day. I have plenty of energy but when my foster family slows down, I do too and just love a cuddle on the couch while they watch TV or read.

I’m a really lovely, special guy (if I may say so myself!) and hope I get to live with a fun, active family. In return, I promise to always be a great playmate, loyal companion and a friend forever.
