My story

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

Meet Dexter: Your Energetic Playful Partner!

Introducing Dexter, a fun, spunky boy bursting with energy and personality! This playful pup is always on the lookout for his next adventure, especially if it involves toys and treats. His enthusiasm is infectious-he's even been known to throw his toys up in the air for a little self-entertainment!

Dexter thrives in an active environment and would be happiest with someone who shares his love for play. He's ready to embark on training sessions, as his love for toys and treats makes him a quick learner. Whether it's fetching, learning new tricks, or just having a good romp in the yard, Dexter is always up for some fun!

He's great with children and recently joined in on a spirited game of tag around the house, showcasing his playful nature and gentle spirit. Plus, he appears to be housetrained, making him a fantastic addition to any family.

If you're looking for a lively companion who will bring joy, laughter, and a bit of adventure to your home, Dexter is the perfect match.

As always, we strongly recommend bringing any resident dogs to the shelter for a meet and greet with potential new family members to be sure it's a good match. If bringing a dog for a meet and greet, please bring proof of up to date rabies, bordetella, and DHPP vaccines.

To meet Dexter, come to Guilford County Animal Services between 12 and 4 any day except Tuesday!
