My story

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

Lex Mex is a lovely girl with a heart as big as her beautiful smile! Known for her joyful tail wags and gentle, easygoing nature, she truly is a pleasure to have around.

She’s the best of both worlds — happy to enjoy long walks and adventures, then perfectly content to curl up beside you for some snuggles when it’s time to relax. Lex doesn’t need constant entertainment and does a great job keeping herself busy, but she’ll never pass up a chance to soak up affection or greet you with her signature wagging tail.

Lex Mex absolutely adores people and hasn’t met a stranger yet. She loves meeting new people, is very quiet, and wins hearts everywhere she goes. She also gets along beautifully with other dogs, making her a wonderful fit for a multi-dog home or as a companion to a friendly pup.

In the home, Lex is crate trained and does well with potty training. Lex is very food-motivated and eager to please, which makes her a great candidate for continued training and bonding. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate, low-key companion who brings joy, love, and constant tail wags into your life, Lex Mex is ready to meet you. 💛
