Alfie

Alfie is a gorgeous two year old Golden Retriever who was in foster care at the same time as Joseph (was Archie). He is the more golden of the two and has been vaccinated, neutered and microchipped.

HISTORY

He came into the care of IRR in Northern Ireland. Alfie was very underweight when he arrived but has put on weight whilst in foster although he still has a bit to put on. He has never been in a home environment before so he has been reluctant to go indoors.

PERSONALITY
He is a happy confident boy. He isn’t really a bouncy dog but he does enjoy trying to climb on your head for attention. He loves to play with a ball.

SOCIAL LEARNING
Housetraining: He was not housetrained but is learning quickly. Food: He is not food aggressive or possessive and he automatically sits and waits for his food. Lead walking: He loves to walk and is quite good on a lead.
Recall: Alfie is good on recall and came back with no problems when let off in a secure area. Children: He got along really well with the fosterer’s two boys
Dogs: He is super with other dogs which included the fosterer’s dogs and the other two rescues.
Cats: He is great with cats. His fosterer’s cats were climbing all over him and he didn’t flinch.

DREAM HOME
This affectionate, friendly boy just needs a forever home where he will be loved to bits and where he will receive the attention that he has, clearly, missed out on.
