My story

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

Meet Dexter, a 10 year old Jack Russell mix. Dexter has lived in his current home for 10 years and has seen many changes. Early in his little life a more aggressive dog joined their family who bullied him. This taught him to become possessive of his food and his toys to the point where he also became aggressive in how he deals with people or dogs who get too near. He has also gone from a home with a yard to a small apartment so he doesn't have much room to stretch his legs.

Dexter enjoys being active with walks, runs and dog parks. He is cuddly and will curl up for a nap with you wherever you are. He doesn't mind baths and isn’t afraid of thunderstorms. The ideal family for Dexter is one that is active but that doesn’t have other dogs or small children.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We require you to fill out an adoption application.
After application is reviewed, a pre-screener contacts you to discuss your application.

Once that is complete, the screener decides if you are recommended for a meet and greet.The entire household should be willing and present for the meet and greet.

If the meet and greet goes well and they are approved to adopt, then we will proceed with a home check.

An adoption contract is required after the home check is approved.

Our adoption fee is $350
