🐾 Meet Alexander Silvanus — Your Gentle Shadow and Loyal Friend

Alexander Silvanus is a sweet-natured, affectionate companion who’s ready to find his forever home. With a heart as soft as his fur, this gentle boy has quickly won over his foster family.

💖 Personality & Temperament

Alexander is incredibly loving and thrives on human companionship. He’ll happily follow you from room to room, always eager to be near his people.
He’s calm, obedient, and well-mannered indoors, making him a delightful housemate.
Around other dogs, Alexander can be shy—especially with larger breeds. He gets along beautifully with his foster family’s dog but prefers to keep his distance from unfamiliar or big dogs.
He’s gentle and friendly, showing a natural ease and sweetness.

🚶‍♂️ Walks & Exercise
Alexander enjoys daily strolls (about 30 minutes) and is house-trained.
He walks on a lead but tends to zig-zag and pull a little—nothing a bit of training and patience won’t fix.
He’s curious on walks and likes greeting people, though he may growl softly when prompted by his foster sibling.

🏡 Ideal Home
Alexander would thrive in a calm, loving household where he can be part of the family. A home without large dogs would be best, given his timidness around them.

Whether you’re a family, a solo adopter, or a couple looking for a gentle companion, Alexander is ready to fill your home with warmth and quiet joy.

🛏️ At Home
Sleeps in his bed in the foster daughter’s bedroom, occasionally starting the evening on the couch.
Has access to the backyard and uses the doggy door.
Travels okay in the car—sometimes a bit whingy, but he loves looking out the window.

Alexander Silvanus is a truly lovable soul who deserves a home where he can feel safe, cherished, and part of the family. If you’re looking for a gentle companion with a heart full of love, Alexander might just be your perfect match. 💙
