Story
Meet Dexter! Dexter is a sweet, fun-loving boy who loves, loves his chew toys, lives for a good game of fetch, and will happily work for treats. When playtime winds down, Dexter turns into a total cuddle bug he will lay still all day if it means getting endless belly rubs!He is mostly kennel trained and housebroken, and after a short adjustment period he has been doing great with no accidents. Dexter enjoys being around other dogs and is respectful of their space. He has also done well around grandkids. When meeting new people, he gets excited and may jump up to say hello, but with a little continued training he will have those greetings perfected in no time. Dexter is a loving, playful, and affectionate companion who is ready to find his forever home. If you are looking for a dog who can keep up with playtime and then happily snuggle by your side, Dexter might be your perfect match. His adoption fee is $250. If you are interested in meeting Dexter, please fill out the application on our website. www.foreverhomedogs.orgAll adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots. Senior dogs, at our discretion, are adopted out at $150 per dog because we know they will have less time with your family and may eventually have more needs as they get older. But we feel these dogs deserve to live out the rest of their lives as part of a loving family.
