Alfie – 5-6 year old male Bull Mastiff cross Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Alfie is an approximately 5-6 year old Bull Mastiff cross Staffordshire Bull Terrier. He was found stray in Yorkshire last summer. He was in good condition and surprisingly never claimed. He is an older dog with calm temperament and will fit in with most family homes with his easy going dog and cat friendly nature. He is easy on the lead and just loves the home environment, enjoying all aspects of family life and companionship.
Alfie suffered the indignity of staying nearly a year in kennels before he was offered a foster place. Since then he has proved himself time and time again to be that ‘MUST HAVE’ dog. He is living with young adults who haven’t owned a dog before.

Managed easily around streets and in a busy park; shopping areas and large gatherings. He is showered by attention/cuddles and he’s back gets sore with being stroked by every passerby!
He can occasionally grab a branch off a tree. Meets dogs really well on a lead. Makes it clear on a rare occasions when he isn’t happy with a dogs vibe and can be just walked on. Alfie isn’t destructive and tolerates being left just fine. Housetrained despite prolonged kennel stay.
He likes to be inclusive, but doesn’t smother and will take himself off for a snooze on the sofa or gets the sun block out and find that spot in the garden.
He runs along side a bike; loves to see people arriving and offers them a choice ‘red or white’ with nibbles of course! The perfect host. He loves to stare at the TV with one eye closed and yes has been known to sleep in the same bed as the cat! Alfie what more could anyone want. He tends not to be off the lead just ’cause he is rather social’.
Alfie is handsome with a gentle, rather serious feel whilst showing happiness in meeting those he loves and those he hopes to get to know. He could live with another gentle dog and a dog friendly cat (s). What a lovely person Alfie is, you will have the extended family booking their appointment to visit and meet.
