Here's what the humans have to say about me:
We got a desperate call in Texas about Alfie...the shelter was desperate to find a home for this unusually gorgeous and so very loving Schnoodle (Schnauzer/Poodle mix). We have never seen a Schnauzer of this coloring with the most amazing markings. But as beautiful as Alfie is on the outside, it just doesn't compare with the love and good-will that flows from the heart of this little guy. As our rescuer drove away from the dreary rural shelter, Alfie was so filled with joy that he climbed into her lap, breathed a huge sigh of relief and fell fast asleep. He slept all the way to the vet's office for his temperament testing (he passed with flying colors) and got a "perfect" on his vetting assessment. So...off he went to his foster home...to be reminded of respectful house skills and to wait for his transport to Denver and a brand new life. Since Alfie has gotten an A+ for sweetness, cuddling and general positive behavior...he's ready to be a devoted family member. We envision him in a home either with children who can play with and love Alfie with a gentle touch or in a home with retirees who will shower time and attention on this devoted and super-loving guy. We would never want Alfie in a situation where he's alone for many hours. Instead we would love for him to be taken along on hikes, adventures and even visits with dog-loving friends. He's almost impossible not to fall in love with...his manner speaks of softness and light. Alfie also travels like a champ - he loves nothing more than to come along on errands, hikes and any adventure that keeps him together with those he loves. He would also be a natural to come along on vacations or getaways...he's so pleasant with everyone that he attracts admirers everywhere he goes. Alfie is a non-shedding guy and will therefore require periodic grooming to keep his cotton-soft coat shiny and matt-free.
Alfie will be arriving on transport in Denver in late October or early November. Applications are currently being accepted for this exceptional companion.
