My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This is Dexter. He is a 5. He is the sweetest boy to his pack (family), however, he is not good with outsiders. We rescued him 3 years ago from a foster home in Milan. He loves to hold hands and paw. He loves pets and snuggles. He walks on a leash great. He is potty trained and can hold it for a long time if needed. He is easy to bathe at the pet shop, not at home. He is very smart and loves treats. He loves car rides, however, he's not so great in the front seat. He rides well in the back of an SUV. He is a scavenger so any food needs to be kept off of low tables or he will eat it. He loves going on boat rides with us. He has never bitten anyone but he has strong herding behavior and will jump/nip at times when people get too close. This has become a problem for visitors and friends of our children at home. He likes to bark. He needs space to run and bark and have a job to protect. We are unable to provide this for him. We love him and want the best for him. He is a loyal companion.
