Dexter is a sweet boy who is very intelligent with an occasional stubborn streak.  He knows basic obedience, sit, stay, and shake and is beautifully crate and house trained.  However, he does not do well with other dogs in the household and doesn't realize his size, so thinks he needs to be king of the castle. For that reason he MUST be an only dog (please do not apply if you have other dogs or if you plan on having multiple dogs in the future).  He has had little exposure with cats, so we don’t know how he would do with a cat.

Dexter does well in the car and loves to cuddle on the couch.  If you are looking for a fur friend who loves to be with you more than anything else, then Dexter might be the one for you. We would love for him to have a home with a fence, but that is not a requirement if the match is otherwise perfect.   Since he is very small and wiggley, considerate children over the age of 12 for this little one.  His adoption fee is $300.  He is fully vetted to include up to date vaccines, neuter, heartworm check, and microchip.
