Meet Alex – A Sweetheart Searching for a Home of Her Own

Background

Alex was born in April 2025 and arrived at the shelter in July 2025. The local city hall reached out to the shelter about a mother dog and her six puppies living with a family who no longer wanted them. The team quickly stepped in, bringing Alex, her siblings, and their mum—Mulan—to safety. Now growing up in a caring environment, Alex is beginning to explore the world with the gentle curiosity only a puppy can offer.

Personality

Alex is a calm and gentle soul, taking the world in at her own pace. She may start off observing the action from the sidelines, but curiosity soon gets the better of her, and she can’t resist joining in the fun. She’s wonderfully relaxed when being handled and will happily rest in your arms, soaking up the comfort. With encouragement through positive reward-based training, counter-conditioning, and steady, calm guidance, Alex will gain the skills and self-assurance to enjoy life’s adventures alongside her future family.

Home Required

Alex would do wonderfully with a calm and understanding family who can provide structured positive reinforcement and encourage her to grow at her own pace. A home with another friendly, confident dog could help her blossom even faster, offering companionship and social learning. Alternatively, she could also flourish as the only dog, where she can receive focused attention, love, and support. Alex will benefit from a household that is ready to provide a mix of play, quiet time, and ongoing encouragement to build her confidence and happiness. Will you be the one to change Alex’s life?
