About Enzo and Alaric
Meet Enzo and Alaric, a heartwarming bonded pair of Labrador Retriever Mixes who prove that love and loyalty only grow stronger with age. Enzo, 9 years old with a sleek black coat, and Alaric, 8 years old with a warm yellow/tan coat, are senior gentlemen with spirits as vibrant as their bond. Despite a rough start in life, these two have blossomed into affectionate, friendly, and playful companions who walk beautifully on leashes and thrive on gentle affection. Their inseparable connection—always side by side, offering each other comfort—makes them a truly special duo, perfect for a calm home ready to embrace their quiet, powerful joy.
Characteristics

Friendly: They’ve won over staff with their warm, welcoming personalities and get along well with people.
Playful: Despite their senior status, they enjoy light play and leisurely walks, keeping their spirits young.

Health and Care
Enzo and Alaric are both neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, and current on heartworm and flea/tick preventatives. They’ve had heartworm tests (including tick disease screening), fecal analysis, and a comprehensive health check as of January 2025. Their adoption includes 24Petwatch microchips with registration. Both dogs are in good health for their age, with no major issues reported, and they’re housebroken, reliably signaling when they need to go outside. Any additional veterinary needs, such as future vaccines for puppies or spay/neuter procedures, are covered by a voucher provided with adoption.
Enzo and Alaric’s Story
Enzo (born August 2016) and Alaric (born August 2017) are a bonded pair of Labrador Retriever Mixes who’ve overcome a challenging past to become the loving, resilient dogs they are today. Rescued by All Star Rescue on January 9, 2025, they quickly showed their true colors as gentle, loyal companions. Whether they’re strolling side by side on leashes, basking in affection from staff, or simply relaxing together, their deep bond is undeniable. They find strength and comfort in each other, making them a package deal for adoption.
While their interactions with other dogs are still being assessed, Enzo and Alaric are known to be friendly with people and get along well with children. Their calm, patient demeanor makes them ideal for a quiet home where they can enjoy leisurely walks, cozy naps, and plenty of love. After all they’ve been through, this duo is ready to share their warmth and loyalty with a family who values the unique joy of adopting senior dogs.
Ideal Home
Enzo and Alaric would thrive in a calm, loving home that can accommodate their inseparable bond. A single-story home or one with minimal stairs and a securely fenced yard is ideal for their leisurely walks and light playtime. They’re great with adults and children, making them suitable for families, but their compatibility with other dogs is still being evaluated, so a home with no other pets may be best until further socialization is confirmed. Owners who appreciate the quiet joy of senior dogs and can provide a patient, low-stress environment will find Enzo and Alaric to be the perfect companions. A suburban or rural setting with space to relax and enjoy gentle activities will make this duo’s golden years truly special.
