My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Alfie is the golden boy. He’s super sweet and friendly, and at 10YO he deserves somewhere to retire and relax in peace and comfort. He was found as a stray on 4/23 not looking his best. He was missing a lot of fur – particularly along his rump and tail. Poor Alfie was covered in fleas, and was limping on his right rear leg. He also has severe periodontal disease, and his ears had so much wax build up in them that they hurt to be touched. With basic medical care and a little TLC he’ll be looking spiffy in no time!

He may be a senior dog, but he’s young at heart when the treats come out! He LOVES his snacks and will jump in excitement for them. His typically calm and relaxed energy level gets kicked up a few notches. He’s mostly happy to entertain himself, but he does love a good petting session!

Alfie es el chico de oro. Es súper dulce y amigable, y a los 10 años se merece un lugar para retirarse y relajarse en paz y comodidad. Fue encontrado como callejero el 23/4 sin su mejor aspecto. Le faltaba mucho pelo, sobre todo a lo largo de la grupa y la cola. El pobre Alfie estaba cubierto de pulgas y cojeaba sobre su pata trasera derecha. También tiene una enfermedad periodontal grave, y sus orejas tenían tanta cera acumulada que dolían al tocarlas. ¡Con atención médica básica y un poco de cariño, se verá elegante en poco tiempo!

Puede que sea un perro mayor, ¡pero es joven de corazón cuando salen las golosinas! Le encantan sus bocadillos y saltará de emoción por ellos. Su nivel de energía, típicamente tranquilo y relajado, se eleva un poco. La mayoría de las veces está feliz de entretenerse, ¡pero le encanta una buena sesión de caricias!
