Hello, I'm Alfie

I'm a 6-year-old German Shepherd Dog Cross from Sheffield rehoming, advice and behaviour unit and I'm looking for my forever home. Please read my profile below to find out more.

About me

Alfie is a friendly and affectionate boy who loves being around people and will happily lean in for a fuss whenever he can. He enjoys getting out and exploring on his walks and, once he’s burned off a little initial excitement, settles into a lovely rhythm by your side.

Alfie is a confident and social dog who can be a little excitable when meeting new people and may jump up to say hello. With some gentle guidance and consistency, he’s already shown he can settle quickly and respond well to management. He has made a great start with his training and would love a home that can continue working with him on his lead walking and recall, especially around distractions like wildlife.

He enjoys the company of other dogs and could live with a friendly, medium to large dog who matches his calm but occasionally playful nature. Alfie has also successfully lived alongside cats and could share his home with a confident cat used to dogs.

Alfie enjoys being out and about and travels well, making him a lovely companion for both local walks and days out exploring new places. Due to his excitable greetings, Alfie would be best suited to a home with children school aged and above.

He is looking for an active home with a garden where he can enjoy a run-around and continue developing into the best version of himself.
