Lexi the brindle and white dog is described as "very smart, loving and caring". Lexi is 70lbs and is a bit of a wallflower. She is initially nervous around new people but give Lexi a chance to warm up to you! You will have a loyal and devoted doggy-friend for life. According to her previous family, Lexi is said to be good with kids and even better with adults! Once Lexi becomes comfortable with her people, she likes to snuggle in bed and give her family affectionate licks. Lexi is interested in tiny critters a little too much and needs to be adopted into a home without any small animals including cats and small dogs. She can be selective about her canine friends, but does best with large dogs, calm dogs that are willing to give Lexi her space. If you have another canine, we require a dog-to-dog introduction with Lexi at the shelter, to make sure she is a good fit for your pack prior to adoption. Sound like the sweet soul for you? Come meet Lexi today!
Lexi is eligible for an Adoption Audition! What is an Adoption Audition? It's a 5-day, no-strings-attached, trial adoption period. You can take Lexi home to try it out! Interested? Come to the shelter any time during open hours and talk to one of our Customer Care staff!
