Alfie is a sweet Havanese mix who has made great strides since his rescue from a hoarding situation. Initially shy, he needs patience and a quiet, adult-only home where he can slowly build trust. Once bonded, he enjoys limited cuddles and playtime. He thrives with a confident, smaller dog (under 30 lbs) to guide him. Alfie has moderate energy, loves sunbathing, and playing with toys, but cannot be crated. He is housetrained and ready for a loving, understanding family.
