Dexter is a tenderhearted 2-year-old who weighs 18 lbs. Don't let his white muzzle fool you.... he's a young sweet boy. He is a little shy at first, but once he knows you're kind, his heart opens wide.
He is heartworm positive (treated) and Chagas negative.
He craves gentle affection and will blossom in a patient, calm home where he feels safe. Coming from a background where he likely wasn't cared for....he just needs time and love to learn that he is finally home.
Dexter gets along well with other dogs here at the rescue...and loves people. Once he trusts you, he is the sweetest little companion you could ask for.
