Meet Dexter, the delightful little ball of love who is ready to steal hearts and find his forever home! 🐾 This dapper young adult, a fabulous Shih Tzu/Yorkie mix, boasts the most adorable little beard that will have you feeling all the warm fuzzies. He's affectionately known as “Dexy,” and believe me, once you meet him, you’ll understand why! Dexter is the ultimate cuddle buddy, the kind that will get cozy right beside you, whether it’s on the sofa or snuggled up in bed! 🛋️ But sweet Dexy didn't always have it so good; he was found as a stray in a rural area, and it’s clear he didn't receive much love or socialization before joining our rescue. Because he’s had a bit of a rough start, he may be shy at first. But, oh, with a sprinkle of patience, consistency, and lots of love, this precious boy transforms into a gentle and happy companion! 🌈 Now, let’s talk home vibes! A calm, quiet environment where he feels safe is A-MUST for our boy. He’ll do best in a home without children because, let’s be honest, their high energy can be a bit too much for his sweet soul. He prefers a fenced yard too because, bless his heart, he experiences a little anxiety on leash walks. 🏡 Dexter's ideal family will understand that he'll need a little time—around a couple of weeks—to gain confidence and build that all-important trust. A little love goes a long way, and in return, Dexter promises to be your most devoted lap dog ever!❤️ He can thrive as an only pet or cuddle up nicely with other furry friends in the home. And guess what? This charming fella has so many wonderful years of love and companionship to give! Isn’t it time to bring Dexter’s happy tail into your life? 🎉 If you’re ready to open your heart and home to this cuddly companion, applying through the Buddy App is your first step! Don't wait too long, he’s waiting to meet his perfect match!
