Alfie is looking for a new home where he can have company through the day and go on lots of walks. He would love a garden to play in and would be a great companion. As Alfie is over 8 years old, he will be covered by our Old Dog Scheme in his new home.*

Alfie is really friendly with visitors to the home and he loves attention. He will settle after getting some cuddles. Alfie loves new people the same as friends! He is friendly with children too, but he is very sensitive about his feet so we have advised any children in the home should be 10 years and older.

Alfie gets on really well with other dogs, especially larger ones! He has also lived with a cat. Alfie does not seem to have separation anxiety and can be left for a few hours. Alfie also does not bark at unfamiliar sounds. He is a bit nervous in the car at first, but settles.

Alfie gets really excited for walks and may not respond to commands at first, but he gets better once he has settled into the walk. Alfie is happy to be brushed and has been to the groomers, but they need help clipping his front claws due to Alfie’s sensitivity.

Alfie loves treats, walks, treats and snoozing. He loves being the centre of attention and loves people and dogs. Alfie is a great all-rounder and is looking for a new home to have a wonderful ‘retirement’ of adventures, treats and cuddles! Please apply for Alfie if you can give him the best home.

*OLD DOG SCHEME: Dog Aid Scotland’s Old Dog Scheme covers dogs rehomed at 8 years old or above. This means that we will cover costs for veterinary care for the dog for the remainder of their life within reason. We do not cover costs for routine treatments such as vaccinations, worming and flea treatment. If the dog requires special dietary food we will contribute 50% of the cost. This will alleviate the worry of the financial implications taking an older dog into your home. Older dogs make great pets! Why not consider an older dog?
