Ali

A loving and friendly boy ready to blossom in a patient home.

Lightfoot Ali (Ali) is a handsome black and white male looking for his forever home. At 5 years and 1 month old, he is a wonderful mature lad weighing a solid 34kg. Ali is described as a loving and friendly boy once he gets over his initial shyness. He will be a fantastic addition to a family who has the time and patience to help him gain his trust and come out of his shell. With a medium energy level, he is a great fit for a balanced, steady household.

He boasts a wonderful report card with people; he is great with humans and children, though his suitability with the elderly is currently unknown. Out and about, Ali has excellent manners; he walks well on the lead and is a very good traveller in the car. Please note that he is selective with other dogs, is not suitable for a home with cats, and we are currently still assessing his housetraining and crate training status as he settles in.

What our Volunteers say: Sally

He is a totally chilled, laid-back boy who takes everything in his stride. During our time together, I noticed a few important things about his behavior. For instance, when a squirrel ran across our path, he simply watched with his ears up; he didn't try to chase it at all. Similarly, when a loose dog ran by, Ali remained completely non-reactive and didn't try to chase the other greyhounds nearby.

Ali enjoys a very slow, relaxed pace and likes doing his own thing. He’s also great at communicating, as he actually "took me for a walk" specifically when he needed to go to the toilet.

Because of his easygoing nature, I think he would be a perfect match for a mature, laid-back couple or a family looking for a relaxed, low-energy companion. I really enjoyed his company and think he'll make a wonderful pet.

What our Volunteers say: Emily

Ali needed a little support getting in and out on the way there but happily jumped in and out on the way back 🖤 Both boys were unfazed by the other breeds out on the day. William was curious and wanted to boop snoots, but there was no fear there. Ali is a quiet little soul who LOVED a lean, a snuggle, and reassurance. William has the big baby energy and wanted to explore. He's very strong on the lead but easily directed.
