Meet ALEX

Meet Alex – a lively, lovable pup with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Alex is currently on the road to recovery after TPLO surgery and is also undergoing treatment for heartworm. While he’s on strict activity restriction for now, don’t let that fool you—this boy has energy to spare and a playful spirit that’s just waiting to shine once he’s healed.Because of his high energy and temporary limitations, Alex will need a patient and experienced home that can help him channel that zest for life into brain games, enrichment activities, and plenty of mental stimulation. He’s working hard on being a good boy during recovery, and he’s making great progress with structure and support.When he’s had his fill of mental fun and the zoomies are out of his system (at least in theory), Alex melts into a total cuddle bug. If you're looking for a smart, spirited companion and you're ready to help guide him through his healing journey, Alex just might be your perfect match.If you would like to learn more, stop by our Boston Adoption Center. We have open adoption hours Tuesday-Sunday from 12pm-3pm – no appointment needed to speak to a staff person regarding available dogs. Preparing your home for your new dog or puppy ahead of time can help ease the transition for your new pet and set you both up for success should there be a dog that’s a good match! To learn more about how to make the first few weeks with your new dog or puppy the most successful it can be, please visit www.mspca.org/petresources. For more information on our adoption process, please visit https://www.mspca.org/adoption-centers/how-to-adopt/ Please note, in an effort to keep the stress levels reduced for the dogs in our care, our dog kennel areas will not be open to walk through. Interested adopters will work with a matchmaker on staff to determine which dog(s) they’re interested in - and if we can identify a match, potential adopters will be able to meet those dogs outside of the kennel. Cat and small animal areas will remain open to walk through.
