West Highland White Terrier Westie and Maltese Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Alfie:

Some dogs arrive quietly. Alfie arrived like he already owned the place.

This little guy joined the Rescue on February 28th and, in record time, has completely stolen our hearts. Alfie appears to be a Westie x Maltese mix and weighs about 12 pounds of pure personality. Right now he’s rocking the “freshly shaved” look thanks to some serious mats he came in with. Let’s just say his hairdresser had a lot to talk about that day.

Alfie was found as a stray, and the wonderful person who found him spent a couple of weeks trying to locate an owner. Sadly, no one came forward. He wasn’t microchipped, his coat was badly matted, and his nails were long enough to qualify him for a part-time job as a tap dancer. Despite all that, Alfie showed up with a fantastic attitude and a heart full of love.

We estimate Alfie is about 2-3 years old. He seems to be pretty well housebroken, which is always a pleasant surprise. As for crates… Alfie would like to file a formal complaint! He much prefers important activities like lounging with the other dogs, supervising the household, or sitting proudly in someone’s lap like the tiny king he clearly believes he is.

From day one, Alfie has been incredibly affectionate. He gives kisses freely and often, like he’s trying to make up for lost time. He’s curious about everything, confident in that charming little-dog way, and struts around the house with just enough swagger to make you laugh.

Alfie is neutered, microchipped and fully vaccinated - he is ready for adoption!

If you’re looking for a small dog with a big personality, a generous supply of kisses, and the confidence of a dog who believes the world revolves around him… Alfie may already be waiting for you.
