My story

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

Please visit leiashope.org for our adoption process.
Located in Troy, MO

Alfred is a squirmy puppy and like a slinky he is hard to keep in your hands. He is wiggling to get down and go explore and play!

Alfred came from a puppy mill and he is a little scared. He was not properly socialized in the mill so he will need someone to work on building his confidence and slowly introducing him to new things.

Alfred doesn't like to be left alone, so someone who is home a lot or has another dog will help him. Alfred is a typical puppy with lots of energy and will need someone who can keep up with him.

Alfred came into rescue with Giardia, a common parasite found in puppy mills. It is easy to treat and he will go home with any remaining meds he has.

Alfred's adoption fee is $500. He is microchipped, current on age appropriate vaccines and on monthly heart worm prevention. He has not been neutered due to his young age (we spay/neuter at 6 months). A spay/neuter contract is required. Next steps can be found at leiashope.org.



PLEASE NOTE: We are a volunteer ran rescue with full time jobs. Please allow 7-10 days for application processing.
All of our dogs are in foster homes and a meet and greet is done ONLY after an approved application.
We do adopt out of the area. However, we do not ship or provide transportation. You must come to the location of the dog to meet and adopt. NO EXCEPTION. All family members and dogs must be present at the meet.
Dogs are a commitment for THEIR lifetime. For puppies this could be 15 years. If YOU cannot commit to the lifetime of the DOG, please do not apply. Puppies under 9 months must go to a home where there is someone home frequently (works from home or a partner is home), can adequately socialize and train the puppy, and can keep up with puppy energy!
