Meet Dexter, an exuberant 6-year-old boxer mix who weighs in at a hefty 66 pounds of love and laughter! 🎉 This adorable bundle of fun has a full-body wiggle that would make even the grumpiest heart crack a smile. With a tail that seems to have its own zip code, he's a love machine on a mission to earn your affection.❤️ Dexter is what you might call a professional lap dog, wrapped in a linebacker’s physique. He’s the kind of guy who wants to be as close to you as physics permits—snuggling is his specialty! Imagine waking up each morning to the gentle kisses of a furry friend who believes he is performing a public service by spreading joy! 😘 With a gentle heart, he might not have mastered the art of knowing his size, so homes with larger dogs and older kids would suit him best. Though Dexter is house trained, he appreciates a little time to adjust to new routines. Not much of a barker, this gentle giant thrives in the great outdoors and could give the Energizer Bunny a run for its money. At six years young, it’s hard to believe he has all this energy! 🌞 Oh, but there’s a second passion in Dexter's life: food! 🍔 This little rascal is a master thief with a degree in snack acquisition. He’s been known to engage in some serious counter surfing, cabinet opening, and yes, he once savored a delightful peanut butter jar snack before getting caught red-pawed! Because of his impressive (and cheeky) snack-stealing skills, it’s wise to crate him when home alone. Dexter is generous with water bowls and most toys, but when it comes to high-value treats, he’ll prefer to enjoy those in his own cozy crate. 🏠 Affectionate, hilarious, and larger than life, Dexter is neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, and microchipped. His adoption fee is $300! 🐾 To meet this delightful character, potential adopters must submit an application through the Buddy App to schedule a meet-and-greet—remember, he’s a star that requires his very own audience! And just a heads up, adopters need to reside within 175 miles of the Quad Cities, and all pets in the home must be up-to-date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered to ensure a loving transition. 🌟 Simply apply through the Buddy App and get ready to welcome Dexter into your heart and home!
