My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Look at this gorgeous boy! So unfair to be discarded when he has so much to offer. He's small for a Shepherd, but seems full grown. Dexter is a 37 lb. neutered. He was discovered by a Save A Dog volunteer at a high kill shelter locked in a pen with 4 other dogs. Dexter is one of the best dogs we have come across in a while. He is smart, gentle, sweet and loves attention. He walks on a leash and loves to play. He has not been cat tested though. He is learning crate training. We also have no history of him with kids. Dexter is excited for his own home where he can get lots of love. is Ehrlichia positive and we are treating it with homeopathy. This tick disease is very treatable and we will discuss all options with the adopting family. Available to the right home 11/15/14.
