Alan came to the shelter on 1/22/2024 from the city pound after his legal hold time was finished. We're guessing on his breed mix, but are thinking Dutch or German shepherd, and maybe even mastiff. He is a big, strong, and friendly guy with a gorgeous brindle coat. He is about 6 to 7 years old and has been fully vetted and microchipped. His fee is $150.

Alan does appear to be housetrained and does know some basic commands. He walks pretty well on leash with a harness. He's very in tune to people and kind of a sensitive soul (don't tell him we said anything). He's also an absolute sweetie who wants to be around people all the time. We don't understand why Alan has been with us for such a long time. He's really a fantastic dog. Maybe it's because he'd prefer to be the only pet in the home, and at this point in his life, he truly deserves all the love and attention. He might be a bit too large and strong for really young kids.

Alan's adoption fee is sponsored by someone who believes in him!
