Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Dexter,
Dexter is almost 4 months old and weighs about 6 pounds. Dexer, his 5 siblings and their mom were dumped in the streets of Rio Grande Valley so we don’t know their breed. Mom weighs 21 pounds and looks like a Sheltie mix (please see “Maggie” in our other pets for adoption to see mom). Dexter is UTD on his vaccines and will need to go to his neuter appointment on November 1. He still needs to learn to go potty outside but belly bands help tremendously! Dexter's been using the bathroom on a potty pad. He’s a super sweet puppy, a little timid at first, but will melt into your arms, after he knows he’s safe! He’s a snuggle bug and has a great temperament!!
