Story
Meet Dexter! Dexter is approximately 5 years old, 12 lbs at the moment, and he may have some Maltese in his mix. In his foster home, Dexter is working hard on his house-training, crate-training, and leash walking. He could join households with kids 10+, and other dogs. He has not been exposed to cats. No apartments, please!His foster says, `Dexter is a pint-sized little fellow that has been easy to foster. He gets along with dogs about his size and would be fine with kids 10+. He likes car rides, does great crated and would be a wonderful addition to his very own family. At his previous home, he wore a belly band so as not to have accidents inside. It has worked great here also.`He is available for adoption in Hopkinton by appointment. Please fill out an application on our website at https://www.browndogcoalition.com/adoptable as a first step.-Dogs may not be given as gifts or surprises.-Please thoughtfully discuss with your entire household the physical, safety, financial and emotional responsibilities of a dog BEFORE applying to adopt.- More information about our adoption process, application and adoption fees can be found at browndogcoalition.com
