Alfie
Jack Russell Terrier · Male · Senior · 13 years
Alfie is a gentle, sensitive 13-year-old Jack Russell with a lovely laid-back side once he feels comfortable. He enjoys taking life slowly, whether that’s having a good sniff on a gentle walk, pottering around the house or settling down for a snooze on the sofa. He likes being near his people and will happily sit beside you, but he isn’t a dog who needs constant fuss. Alfie prefers affection on his own terms, which makes him a great match for someone who appreciates a quieter companion and is happy to let that bond grow naturally. He’s fully house-trained, travels really well in the car and settles nicely once he knows his surroundings. New situations can take him a little time to process, but with patience he soon finds his feet. If you’re looking for a sweet older dog who is more about sofa snuggles, gentle adventures and peaceful companionship than a hectic lifestyle, Alfie could be your perfect match. Alfie is looking for a peaceful home where he can enjoy life at his own pace, with people who are happy to let him settle in and get to know them in his own time. He’d love a calm household with minimal visitors, where he can potter about, relax on the sofa and have plenty of opportunities for gentle sniffy walks. He’ll need to be the only dog in the home and could live with secondary school aged children. Alfie can be a little sensitive when things feel unfamiliar, so patient adopters who are happy to give him space and build his confidence gradually would be a great match. Once he’s settled, he’s happy to be left for around 4-6 hours and has already shown that he can relax comfortably on his own. If your home is more cosy and calm than busy and bustling, and you’re looking for a lovely older boy to share the sofa with, Alfie could fit in beautifully.
