Alfonso is a 2-year-old Cattle Dog Mix. He was transferred to HAWS from a shelter in Alabama. He is a very sweet boy but unsure in the shelter environment. We are recommending homes with kids age 12 and older since he can be overwhelmed easily. He seem to be good with cats and dogs. He's very friendly when he warms up to you, but it may take him some time.
Beau is a 4-year-old Hound Mix. He is a curious, friendly dog. If children are in the home we would require they be 10 or older due to size and potential to guard the food dish. We are unsure how he is with cats. He has been good with other dogs here at the shelter. He also has a very sweet and gentle demeanor.
Hope you're staying cozy warm!
