According to reports by the official website, the dog is an ex racing Greyhound who has finished his racing career and is now looking for his forever home. The handsome dog is fine with children over 12. Stating the kind of house that Alfie needs, the site says, “He cannot be left on his own yet so will need his owners around all the time for as long as it takes for him to feel secure. He is worried by other dogs if they are too lively or invade his personal space and would prefer not to share his new owners or the sofa with another dog. He may have calmer walking buddies”. The site further tells that Alfie loves people and is always happy.
