Story
Alfie is a 6-month-old Schnauzer mix with enough energy to power a small village, and enough love to fill your entire house.This 40-ish-pound blur of scruffy, bearded floof came to us after his last human couldn’t keep up with his zooms, and now he’s lighting up our shelter… but he deserves so much more.Puppies just don’t belong in shelters. They need play. They need cuddles. They need YOU.And while we do our best, we can’t give Alfie what he truly needs: a home.Right now, Alfie is all jumpy, mouthy, bouncy excitement when he comes out of his kennel -- not because he's wild, but because he's desperately lonely -- a brilliant little brain and huge little heart stuck in a kennel all day. But spend just a little time with him, and the chaos melts into sweetness. He softens. He leans into you. He listens. He learns.He already knows how to sit and wait for treats like a seasoned pro, he politely shakes hands (learned that trick in under two seconds!), and he’s fantastic in the car. Training? He loves it. Alfie lights up when he knows he’s done something right. All he wants is someone to show him the way.Alfie is looking for:- A person or family who loves to move, play, and teach- A life full of walks, toys, snuggles, and celebration- A gentle, patient guide to help him become the incredible dog he’s meant to be***A quick note to families: Alfie is teething, and like all pups, his mouth is currently the lens through which he explores life. That includes hands, sleeves, zippers, noses... you get it. For that reason, we will not show Alfie to children under 5-years-old. Let Alfie light up your life at Animal Aid Society, 80 Butler Farm Road, Hampton, VA.We’re open 9am to noon every day, including weekends and holidays.Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm.
