Alfie needs a foster

I had the good fortune of meeting this sweet, gentle giant earlier this week shortly after she arrived on her transport from Red Lake Rosie's Rescue. I admit I have a very soft spot for the dogs we bring in from Red Lake as the latest addition to our family, Ahnung, came to us from Red Lake. Like Alfie, she came with heartworm and needed to stay calm for a couple months as she went through treatment. There is something magical and mystical about many of the dogs coming to us from Red Lake reservation. As I knelt down to hug Alfie I could sense this calm, serene, wise presence about her .. there is something very, very special about this girl -- just look into her eyes and you will see what I mean.

Alfie is currently being boarded at our partner vet as she goes through heartworm treatment. She would much rather be lounging on a dog bed by your side (or on your couch if you'd let her!). She would also be happy to snuggle up next to you by your fireplace and just lay her head on your lap.

If you currently have a quiet, calm household with no dogs, or a very calm dog, we would love for you to contact us and consider fostering Alfie. Email us at pethavendogs@yahoo.com with questions or if you'd like to arrange for a visit with sweet Alfie :)
