Here's what the humans have to say about me:
ALFIE--***RUTH rhanley1@yahoo.com***ALFIE--"THE ULTIMATE COMPANION--LOYAL--LOVING--GORGEOUS" ALFIE IS A BREATHTAKING BEAUTIFUL, 3 YEAR OLD, 75-80 LB. GREAT PYRENEES WITH MAYBE JUST A HINT OF GOLDEN RETRIEVER IN HIS FAMILY TREE. WE RECEIVED A CALL FROM ALFIE'S FAMILY ASKING FOR OUR HELP WHEN DUE TO A LIFE STYLE CHANGE THEY REALIZED THAT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO GIVE THIS WONDERFUL FELLOW THE TIME AND CARE HE DESERVES. THIS WAS A HEARTBREAKING DECISION FOR ALFIE'S FAMILY BUT THEY ALSO KNEW THAT IT WAS THE RIGHT THING AND THE RIGHT DECISION FOR THIS MUCH LOVED PUP. THIS GORGEOUS GUY LIVES UP TO THE "GREAT" IN GREAT PYRENEES. WHEN YOU FIRST SEE ALFIE HE WILL ABSOLUTELY TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY, HIS COAT IS CUDDLE SOFT, A STRIKING GLACIER WHITE AND LOOKS LIKE FEATHERS WHEN IT BLOWS IN THE WIND. HIS FACE IS HIGHLIGHTED WITH DARK, GENTLE, EYES THAT CONVEY A LOOK OF LOYALTY AND TRUST. A BEAUTIFUL GUY YES BUT WAIT TIL YOU SEE ALFIE IN MOTION, TRUE TO THE GREAT PYRENEES BREED, HE HAS A ROLLING, AMBLING GAIT, FLUID AND SMOOTH. HE IS AN EXTREMELY GRACEFUL PUP AND WHEN HE PICKS UP THE PACE HIS MOVEMENTS ARE LITHE AND QUICK OF ACTION. THE GREAT PYRENEES IS ALSO NOTED AS ONE OF THE MOST PICTURESQUE AND BEAUTIFUL OF ANIMALS, A BREED OF GREAT MAJESTY, KEEN INTELLIGENCE AND KINDLY EXPRESSION. THEY ARE KNOWN FOR THEIR UNLIMITED STAMINA AND STRENGTH. ALFIE TRULY IS BEYOND BEAUTIFUL BUT THIS PUP'S TRUE BEAUTY IS HIS HEART AND SPIRIT. HE IS A PATIENT, GENTLE SOUL WHO WILL GREET YOU WITH A SOFT, KIND EXPRESSION, HE WILL COME CLOSE, REST THAT GRAND HEAD IN YOUR LAP DELIGHTING IN A PAT OR A RUB AND WILL REPAY YOU WITH THE BEST KISSES EVER!!!. HE IS A PUP THAT ADORES BEING GROOMED AND AS LONG AS YOU WILL BRUSH ALFIE'S GORGEOUS COAT HE WILL STAY CUDDLED AS CLOSE TO YOU AS HE CAN GET. HE IS A GENTLE NATURED COMPANION AN EXTREMELY HAPPY FELLOW WHO'S TRUE HAPPINESS IS BEING WITH THOSE WHO LOVE HIM. BY DISPOSITION NO MORE PERFECT DOG COULD HAVE BEEN CHOSEN TO ASSUME THE ROLE OF PROTECTOR AND FRIEND. THE PYRENEES BREED ARE EXTREMELY DEVOTED TO THOSE THEY LOVE AND THIS IS ALFIE . HE WOULD BE AN INVALUABLE COMPANION, HIGHLY INTELLIGENT AND UNDERSTANDING OF MANKIND. NOT A CLINGY, NEEDY DOG BUT A REGAL, GENTLE PUP WHO IS CONTENT TO SPEND HIS DAYS IN THE PRESENCE OF HIS OWNER, ALWAYS WATCHFUL AND PROTECTIVE OF THEM. ALFIE IS A PUP THAT LOVES THE OUTDOORS, AND ALFIE IS CONTENT TO SPEND HIS DAYS SITTING ON HIS PORCH, WITH THE WIND BLOWING THAT GORGEOUS COAT, CONTENT TO NAP AND JUST WATCH THE WORLD GO BY. THE GREAT PYRENEES IS ALSO ONE OF THE WORLD'S MOST INTELLIGENT DOGS. THEY ARE NOT A DOG TO SPEND THEIR DAY AIMLESSLY RETRIEVING A BALL OVER AND OVER. ALFIE NEEDS TO FIND MEANING TO THE COMMANDS GIVEN TO HIM. HE IS A BRAVE AND DETERMINED DOG WHO FINDS SOMETHING NEW A CHALLENGE AND INTERESTING. HE WILL "COME" ON COMMAND, AND "SIT" ON COMMAND. HE IS A PUP THAT DELIGHTS IN PLEASING WHICH MAKES TRAINING A BREEZE. AFTER SPENDING TIME WITH ALFIE WE FEEL THAT THE PERFECT HOME FOR ALFIE WOULD BE WITH AN OWNER WHO HAS LAND IN A COUNTRY SETTING WHERE ALFIE COULD SPEND HIS DAYS LYING IN THE SUN, NAPPING ON HIS BIG PORCH, AND TAKING IN THE GRANDEUR OF NATURE. HE IS NOT A CONDO, CITY OR SMALL BACK YARD KIND OF GUY THIS PUP IS TO GRAND TO BE A CITY DWELLER. ALFIE WOULD BE CONTENT BEING HIS OWNER'S ONLY COMPANION OR HE MIGHT ENJOY THE COMPANY OF ANOTHER DOG, ONE WHO WOULD LET ALFIE CONTINUE TO BE THE "STAR" IN HIS FAMILY.(CATS HOWEVER ARE ANOTHER MATTER AND WE HAVEN'T CONVINCED ALFIE THAT CATS DON'T WANT TO ROMP AND PLAY WITH HIM SO A HOME WITHOUT CATS IS PROBABLY BEST). IN HIS HOME ALFIE CONTINUES TO SHINE, HOUSE TRAINED WITH BEAUTIFUL MANNERS. HE IS RESPECTFUL OF HIS SURROUNDINGS. HE WILL FIND HIS SPOT, PLAY WITH HIS FAVORITE TOY OR CHEW ON HIS "CHEW BONE" OR HE WILL CURL UP AND NAP CONTENT JUST KNOWING HE IS WITH HIS FAMILY THIS IS ALFIE'S TRUE HAPPINESS. HOWEVER HE IS NOT A PUP WHO IS CONTENT TO SPEND HIS DAYS INDOORS, A COOL CRISP DAY WHERE ALFIE CAN TAKE LONG WALKS, WITH THE WIND BLOWING IN HIS FACE HIS PERFECT DAY!!! ALFIE'S PERFECT OWNER WOULD BE ONE WHO IS WANTING A TRUE COMPANION, A BRAVE, DETERMINED, HIGHLY INTELLIGENT PUP WHO LIVES TO DEVOTE HIS LIFE TO THE CARE OF HIS OWNER. HE IS A COMPANION WHO IS LOYAL TO THE LAST DEGREE. HE WOULD BE A DELIGHTFUL COMPANION FOR A COUPLE, A SINGLE GUY OR GIRL OR A FAMILY WITH OLDER GENTLE CHILDREN WHO WOULD RESPECT THIS GRAND ANIMAL. ALFIE ONLY HAS ONE WISH AND HIS EYES TOLD US THIS THE FIRST TIME WE MET HIM. HE WANTS TO BE A CHERISHED COMPANION, TO BE A PART OF SOMEONE'S LIFE. HE WANTS TO BE LOVED AS DEEPLY AS HE LOVES. HIS WISH IS TO KNOW AT DAY'S END WHEN HE COMES INTO HIS HOME AND CURLS UP ON HIS BIG FLUFFY BED THAT THE LAST THING HE WILL RECEIVE IS A PAT AND HEAR THE WORDS "ALFIE I LOVE YOU" SPOKEN BY HIS OWNER AND THIS GRAND PUP WILL LIFE HIS GORGEOUS HEAD, BLINK THOSE BEAUTIFUL EYES AND THIS IS HIS WAY OF SAYING "I LOVE YOU TOO" AND ALFIE WILL DRIFT OFF TO SLEEP CONTENT AND HAPPY, HIS WISH HAS BEEN GRANTED, HE IS PART OF A FAMILY AGAIN AND IS LOVED!!!!!
