Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello World! Alfie
My name is Alfie - and I'm very happy to meet you! I'm a loving and affectionate bichon boy who is six months young. My Aunties at Bichon FurKids say that I am one of the handsomest little characters they have ever rescued. And believe me, they've rescued a lot of them, so they know what they're talking about!
Besides being affectionate, I’m also a playful little guy who likes other dogs and cats! When my doggy foster brothers or sisters want to romp and play, I take my cue – and we play and play and play. Tug-of-war, chase, fetch – you name it! I like big dogs and small dogs – practically anyone who wants to play and have a great time can be my new best friend. Alfie
I also like to take my foster Mom on daily walks. All she has to do is walk towards my leash and I'm ready to go. Then, again, when she wants to sit and relax (and maybe listen to music) I’m happy to curl up by her feet and sigh a great big sigh of happiness.
I know how to do all the things that make me a great companion, too. I listen carefully to what Mom and Dad tell me -- and am learning my commands. I’m also housebroken, really good in the car (I fall asleep as soon as we are moving) and want to belong. I’m very fond of people and I love children. Mom says I need something called ‘training’ so I’m not too exuberant with young children – but she says that’s because I’m a puppy and I like to lick faces :>)
Did I mention that I’m sweet, social and a bit independent? Dad said to be sure to tell you that! After a day of playing, some napping (well I am a puppy!) some cuddling and some training, I get to sleep with Mom, Dad, the other pups and the cats in the Big People’s bed. Being close to my family is my priority – and I sleep quietly all through the night.
Are you getting the picture? I'm the kind of pup that just wants to love and be loved, and to please you in any way I can. Mom says that I will be sure to win your heart. Will you give me a chance to do that? I'll be waiting to hear from you.
Love and cuddles,
Always Adorable and Affable Alfie
