Get to know Alfred, our Pet of the Week!

This three-year-old Staffordshire Bull Terrier/pittie mix came to us via a good Samaritan in late August. At 60 pounds, he’s considered a large breed dog.

Alfred has big, soulful eyes that melt hearts. He absolutely loves treats and will do just about anything for them. He walks nicely on a leash and is a quick learner. Alfred is also charming and sweet, and loves a good scritch behind the ears.

Can you give Alfred the loving home he deserves? He is neutered, current on vaccinations, and microchipped. As our Pet of the Week, Alfred can go home with you for just $50, which includes a King County pet license (if applicable). Learn about all the benefits that come with a pet license at kingcounty.gov/LicenseMyPet.

Adopting a pet from RASKC is always a great value. Along with a companion for life, dog adopters get a $40 coupon toward training from our partners at Rover. All adopters can also benefit from enrolling their new friend in Fetch Pet Insurance. Fetch offers the most comprehensive plan in North America with no restrictions on breed, age, or size. Together, RASKC and Fetch are making sure pets are happy and healthy in their new forever homes!
