Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello friends, my name is Dexter! I'm a 5 year old Miniature Australian Shepherd mix that weighs about 36 pounds. I'm an affectionate, outgoing, and friendly fella. I love every human I meet. Going out on walks, getting belly rubs, and sunbathing in the sun are a few of my favorite things. I can be reactive towards other dogs, so if you do have another dog in the home, please schedule a time to bring them up so we can meet each other prior to adoption. I walk wonderful on the leash, housetrained, and crate trained. I'm neutered, current on my vaccinations, heartworm tested negative, and microchipped. Come meet my wiggly handsome self at the Benbrook Waggin' Tails Adoption Center, open daily from 12-6 p.m. If you have questions, give my friends a call at 817-249-3647.
