DEXTER is a fun loving little guy. When his foster pals dont want to play, Dexter doesnt let that stop him. He will throw a ball and run to pick it up. He loves his cuddles and looks to his human family for approval.
Dexter doesnt like his crate, but is not destructive. He knows sit, but can use some work on other basic skills. He loves to run but doesn't feel comfortable in a car. Although new places stress him at first, he adjusts quickly.
He gets along great with the other dogs in the house, and has proven to be a great, big brother to our 3 shepherd foster pups.
DID YOU KNOW that he is famous?
My 6 siblings and I were dumped in a wooden crate in a subdivision in Sugarland. 8 week old puppies should be learning to socialize and play, not trying to keep each other safe.
They had a case of coccidia, were covered in fleas and ticks and were dehydrated. 7 months later he is a gorgeous little boy whose favorite hobby is giving kisses.

The adoption fee includes vaccinations, Bordetella, de-worming, rabies, spay/neuter and microchip. There is a an additional $12.99 fee for Home Again for a lifetime registration of the microchip.
Puppies cannot be adopted outside of the Houston area until they are spay/neutered after they are 4 months old.
It is against the law in the State of Texas for a rescue not to be sterilized so we have to make sure it gets completed and that we have record of it.
