Alice - Boston Terrier and Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in New York, New York

Meet Alice

Alice may be a senior, but don't let that fool you. This little girl is a tiny firecracker with a whole lot of love to give.

Alice was surrendered by her owner when they were no longer able to care for her. While saying goodbye to a beloved companion is never easy, Alice is ready for the next chapter of her life, and we're hoping that chapter is filled with comfort, love, and a family who will cherish her for all the days ahead.

She is a pint-sized love bug who is incredibly sweet, affectionate, and full of personality. Every now and then, Alice has a little playful spark that makes you forget she's a senior at all. She may have a few more gray hairs and prefer the slower pace of life, but she still has plenty of fun and love left in her.

What Alice needs most now is something every senior deserves: a stable, loving home where she can feel safe, treasured, and cared for. She has already lost the person she knew, and we would love nothing more than to make sure her next home is her forever home.

Alice may only have a few years left to share with her family, but those years can be incredibly meaningful. Senior dogs have a special way of reminding us that love isn't measured in time, but in the moments you share.

Please consider giving this little firecracker the soft landing she deserves. Alice has so much love left to give, and she's waiting for someone who will give that love right back.

Please remember that adoption bios are only a snapshot of each animal. They are meant to give you a glimpse into their personality and story, but there is so much more to learn. Please reach out to our Adoption Team for additional information about Alice and to learn if she may be the right fit for your home.

All dogs will be altered, microchipped, and receive age-appropriate vaccines prior to adoption.
