Well, let me tell you about this sweet boy named Dexter! 💖 At just 4 years old, this charming Chihuahua/Dachshund (chi-weenie) mix weighs in at a delightful 26 pounds. Now, Dexter didn't have the best start in life; he came to us from a heartbreaking situation after his owner passed away and he was kept in a teeny tiny cage. 😢 But oh, how far he’s come! Yes, he's a bit timid, but with a little love and patience, he’s blossomed into a playful pup who’s always ready for a game of tug of war. 🐾💪 This loving animal gets along splendidly with his fellow furry pals, though he hasn't been tested with kids or cats yet. When he warms up to you, he’s as friendly and lovable as they come! Just think of the cuddles and the joy he’d bring into your home. 🌟 His little heart is still healing from the loss of his previous owner, so let’s give him a chance to feel the warmth and comfort of a loving family again. This boy is on the right track, fully neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, plus he’s heartworm-negative and on monthly prevention. With an adoption fee of $250, you’re not just gaining a pet, you’re opening your heart to a fellow who needs it most. Dexter is looking for his next great adventure, and it could be with you! Potential adopters must remember to apply through the Buddy App, and just a heads up—adoptions are only available within the lovely state of Florida.
