Alessia is nicknamed our little “Movie Star” because she always seems to be right there when we approach the whelping box, looking up at us with bright eyes and excellent expression as if to say, “Pick ME, pick ME, please!!” She is very alert, somewhat sassy and also quite playful. She has wide-set and expressive eyes, a short muzzle and a dark mask. She has very fluid movement, a compact body, and her coat looks like it will be a dark fawn color. Her gaze has a way of capturing your heart and she is not shy about showing her affection. We think Alessia would be a great companion as well as a show and/or working prospect, and best suited with a family who has an active lifestyle and enjoys play time with their companion.
