He is 9 weeks old (estimated DOB 4/2/26) and currently weighs 11.9#. Alex is the smartest contestant in the room... and possibly the cutest!

Like any young puppy, he is still trying to figure out the world one step at a time and would thrive in a home with a patient family ready to help him build confidence, trust, and lots of happy memories.
