Dexter
American Staffordshire Terrier / Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat) · Senior (10 years 7 months) · Male · Medium · Holly Springs, NC
Notes from Pawfect Match Rescue
Dexter was rescued from the shelter on a last call alert by Pawfect Match. Maybe his middle name should be Lucky? At the age of 10 he is a mature, well mannered man. But, I believe he has plenty of days of chasing balls and enjoying adventures ahead of him. Dex has been a gentleman with our children, he hasn’t barked at doorbells, knows his name, knows how to sit, and seems to be housebroken. He hasn’t had any interactions with other pets yet, but he seems interested. Dexter is getting better at being kenneled. He does sleep in his kennel at night, and is kenneled when we are not at home. He is a medium sized guy, recently weighing in under 40 pounds. If you are interested in fostering or adopting Dex please contact Pawfect Match. Fostering is free!
