About Dexter

Lab mix
Age: Adult
Sex: Male

THIS IS A COURTESY POSTING ONLY, IF INTERESTED IN DEXTER, PLEASE SEE CONTACT INFORMATION BELOW. URGENT PLEA!!! Sweet Lab Mix Heading To Animal Shelter soon!!! NEEDS NEW FAMILY ASAP!!!!!!! Name: Dexter Age: 7 Breed/Weight/Markings: Lab Mix/ Approx. 70lbs/Black with white spots on chest and paws Rescue Story: Grandma-in-law who has dementia and lives in the home with Dexter now confuses the front door with back door from time to time. The wrong door was opened a few weeks ago and Dexter excitedly ran out wanting to play with a bicyclist and his dog as they passed by. The bicyclist ended up falling off his bike but no one was hurt. The bicyclist was very annoyed and vocal about the situation. Now, Father-in-law is concerned Dexter may get out and this type of incident may happen again so he thinks Dexter might do better in a more suitable home. Personality: Dexter is an awesome, indoor family dog but also loves hanging outside and is a great yard and family protector. He is very loving and easy to love!! Dexter always wants to please his owner and knows all the commands: sit, lay down, paw/other paw, stay, get up, no. With some treats in hand, Dexter will do almost anything for you�%81S He loves, loves to play and will play as long as his owner is up for it and keeps throwing the ball. He even mixes some soccer moves into the game and kicks the ball back to you sometimes. Dexter loves going on long walks, runs or hikes�'�|he enjoys being a running partner and he will run right next to you! And when you get home from your adventurous day he'll probably be up for a little wrestling before you both take your naps! Where ever there is fun, friends, family and love, he's up for it!! When at home relaxing, Dexter is sitting by your side or just keeping an eye open to see what everyone is up to. He is more than happy to cuddle up by you or just lay by your feet when you're watching TV, as long as he can be near you, he's a happy boy! Normally, at night when everyone goes to bed he will sleep tight at the foot of the bed. He loves affection and will look at you with those sweet lab eyes as you pat and stroke the top of his head. Dexter loves people but is a little shy at first and somewhat cautious when people approach him. He will warm up to people as he gets to know them. Only takes about 5 or 10 minutes and then he's feeling very comfortable and ready to chase the ball with his new human friend! Dexter sometimes acts excitedly when he sees other dogs, lacking proper etiquette. He may bark and tug on the leash when he sees other dogs while out for walks. He's had buddies before but he wants to make it clear that he is top dog. With that said, Dexter needs a home where he is the only doggie child and can receive all of your love and attention. Medical: Dexter is neutered, micro chipped, fully vaccinated, and overall one healthy dog. Would Do Best: Dexter would do best as an only dog YouTube link: To see Dexter in action go to: https://youtu.be/9LoSDc85SZ4 https://youtu.be/asl2wki62Go **For more information, please contact: [email protected] ** Adoption fee & application will apply ** Sponsored by adoptmerescue.org
