Dexter - Central PA Animal Alliance

Dexter

Dexter is a 1 year old pit mix, possibly a little Great Dane in there.  In other words, he's a big boy, with totally floppy ears! He's such a happy, snuggly, loving boy and we just want to help find the BEST home for him. As typical with most pitties, he takes allergy medication and also has a sensitive belly.  He loves playing with humans and all the other dogs in the Program, but doesn't always understand that not all dogs...(Penny)...want to be his friend.  He's learning so much in the Program and we can't wait to see how this boy will bloom!


Dexter is available through the Central PA Animal Alliance and his adoption fee is $400.  He comes fully vetted, neutered and of course FREE lifetime training assistance.

Hey everyone, Dexter learned how to get a bath this week without having to be secured on the table. He stood there and took it like a Champ. Believe me, after him and Delaney played a combination of NASCAR and WWE in our soaking wet mud plagued dog yard for about a half hour, they both needed it. He was almost unrecognizable, but they had the time of their young lives. Unfortunately, we didn't do a whole lot of training this week because I caught the bug that is running rampant in here. He was so good for me though when I wasn't feeling well, so I made it up to him today and just let him rock out and play and just be a dog. He's been doing so good with his training anyway. We'll get back to school next week. See you then.

Another great week, Dexter has had an amazing week. He is doing great and has passed his Level one obedience this week. He's ready to start Level 2. He has become best friends with Delaney and loves playing with her almost non-stop. He is still a quiet dog and rarely barks unless someone else starts barking first then he joins in for a minute or two then stops. He rarely jumps on someone, he prefers to just come up and sit by someone. He also enjoys just sitting in the cell and watch out at the screen. He's still a big sweetheart and loves to cuddle and play. Right now he is laying at my feet as I am write this. He has found a home and I'm very happy for him and his new family. I'm sure they will love him as much as I do.

In his first week, Dexter is already proving to be one of the smartest dogs his handler has worked with. He is very food-motivated and a "biggest sweetheart" who loves meeting everyone. He is a "goof ball" who jumps in circles when playing with his best bud, Charlie. Ruby is helping him learn boundaries, and he is already ready to test for Level 1 Obedience. He is not destructive, rarely barks, and his favorite thing is to cuddle on a lap.

Dexter joined HOPE today and we're all looking forward to learning more about him!
