My story

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

Dexter is BEEE-YOU-TI-FUL !!!!!

Dexter is a Kelpie / Cattle Dog mix who is young and already has very nice manners. He's quite a gentleman and understands commands. He is absolutely in love with everyone he meets and believes (until they walk away) that everyone who comes to an adoption event is there specifically to meet him. What an excellent greeter!

He's about 18 months old and wants to play and be loved. And play and be loved. And then play some more. Or go for a walk or sit in your lap. He's easy going and will be glad to join you with any activities where having a fantastic dog makes things better. He loves other dogs -- the only sound he made all day at his first adoption event was yelping out a big cry at a large and floppy labradoodle who he wanted as a play pal.

Dexter spent about a year penned up in a bad situation with another dog who'd been previously stolen. They were both neglected and didn't have the best of living conditions. Both had tick fever (and have been treated). The stolen dog has gone back to its family, but now Dexter needs a family of his own. Because he spent so much time with the other dog, we think it'd be great if he was adopted into a family with another dog.

This very healthy and exquisite Kelpie/Cattle Dog mix is neutered, vet checked, vaccinated, and microchipped. His adoption fee is $160.00.
