DEXTER

Dexter - one of the nicest and sweetest dogs out there! This handsome, little fella is DEXTER, a wonderful, 6 year old, Maltese mix (possibly with Havanese) who weighs around 7 pounds and has an extremely soft coat of different grays. Dexter was stray found in deplorable condition with his coat matted to the skin requiring shaving off. His hair is growing back and will be long and luxurious again in time.<br/><br/>Dexter’s priority is spending time with his person/people. Dexter seeks out your attention and will snuggle up on your tummy or chest if allowed. He’s happy to share your lap too with other dogs; his one favor spot is sitting on a chair to look out the window. In addition, Dexter loves the companionship of other small dogs and does best in a home with other dogs. He does enjoying playing with toys. Dexter is great with cats too. He walks well on a leash, is housebroken, and crate trained. His foster mom crates him when she leaves the home. <br/><br/>Dexter thrives in a home where there are other small, friendly dogs and someone home more often. He also enjoys a fenced yard. Based on his behavior in his foster home, he is not a candidate for apartment/condo living due to his barking at noises; he is easily spooked by loud noises on walks like garbage trucks going by. We think this may be caused by him having been strayed and living outside for a period of time. He’s not an “adventure” dog - he’s more of a “home body.” <br/><br/>This dog has been examined by licensed veterinarians, provided inoculations, been tested for diseases, dewormed, spayed, and microchipped; he is housebroken and crate trained. ADOPTION APPLICATIONS ARE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST from acaringplace@comcast.net.
