Meet DEXTER
My name is Dexter. I don't know what made me the way I am. But whatever it was, left me absolutely adorable. I am 7 years old and I weigh 49 pounds. I know some Spanish and I am looking to seal the deal of finding my home with a shake of the paw and a treat to seal the deal. Dexter’s adoption fee is $50. He is neutered and microchipped and has age-appropriate vaccinations. A licensing fee may apply.
