Look who’s back on the market!

Why it’s everybody’s favorite Beauceron mix, Dexter! We announced a couple weeks ago that Dex was adopted, so what the heck happened, you might ask? Whenever a new dog is brought into the family we always recommend you give them plenty of time to adjust, let them eat and enjoy bones on their own, or in their crate. Unfortunately Dexter was fed him in the kitchen with the other dogs, and he growled. So the poor guy didn’t even get 24 hours to adjust to a new home. His foster went and picked him up that very day. We decided to treat him like a “new” dog to the rescue program and re evaluate him. His foster tells me he is as wonderful this time around as he was the first one. She sent me videos of her being near him and interacting with him while he ate. No problems. She sent me videos of him eating with another dog near him. He doesn’t snap or growl, but does quicken his eating and stiffen in body posture. So, we recommend, he be fed separately, or in his crate. We welcome any potential adopters to ask myself, or his foster questions. We don’t want Dexter bounced around, so it’s VERY important to us that anyone interested in him chat with us about any concerns they might have. Ok, so now that the “bad” news is out of the way, lets talk about the good stuff! Dexter is a happy go lucky guy, good with all people and children. He LOVES playing with other dogs, and we would LOVE for him to have a doggie buddy to play with. He is housebroken, crate trained, rides well in a car, and walks nicely on a leash. He has had several months professional training with his current foster, so has all basic obedience commands. At just 7 months old Dex is a typical busybody puppy, but is very food motivated and eager to please. Dexter is neutered, and up to date on his vaccines.

Dex’s ideal family would be an active one! He is a busy boy who would LOVE a human to continue training with. Rally? Agility? Nosework? This is your pup! He is a Beauceron mixed with Lab, and has natural ears and no double dews. He is a little guy at 55 lbs.
