My story

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

Introducing this cute, sweet, smart boy named Alistair. Alistair arrived at the shelter on 3/19 because he got lost on an adventure! He is precious, sweet and cute as he can be. He is very playful, attentive and obedient and enjoys playing outside as much as he can while he patiently waits for his new home. He has a lot of energy to burn so a fenced in backyard where he can run until his heart is content is ideal for him. Alistair would love to have an active family that will include him on grand adventures. Create activities for him to keep him stimulated and content so he doesn't get bored and wonder away from home again. All it takes is for you to be extremely patient and dedicated as a committed pet parent. Period.

This smart, energetic baby is awesome as he knows of commands such as sit when asked which is awesome! He may know more and would be the perfect student if someone would take the time to teach him. He yearns for a great family who will take the time to train him properly so he will never return to a shelter ever again. With your patience and love, he is going to need you now more than ever. Can you please help him get of this shelter so he can live the best life possible? Please come see this little handsome guy soon and get to know him more. Alistair is just a year old and weighs about 50lbs. He is still just a baby. Always BE PATIENT WITH HIM AS YOU SHOULD WITH ANY SHELTER PUP. Puppies are a lot of work and COMMITMENT so please make sure you have the time, COMMON SENSE, patience, financially stability, and a stable home to give Alistair the life he deserves so much. Its all he has ever dreamed of.

Alistair is current on vaccines, neutered, and tested negative for heartworms; he will be microchipped upon his adoption. He will be waiting for you to save his life in Run 829. Alistair's ID is 655358. It is not known how he is with kids, dogs, and cats, but we encourage for you to bring them to meet him so he can possibly have a lifelong best friend.
