Current Location: Seven Valleys, PA Meet Dexter. This sweet, calm, and quietly charming guy is the kind of dog who makes life feel easy. From the moment he arrived, he began settling into foster life like a pro, quickly learning the rhythms of a home and showing just how adaptable he is. Dexter is wonderfully relaxed and easygoing. He walks beautifully on leash without pulling, rides through his day with a calm presence, and is one of the quietest dogs around. He is crate trained and settles in without a peep, happily curling up, especially if there is a soft blanket involved. In fact, he has a bit of a love affair with cozy blankets and will gladly claim one as his favorite spot. He gets along well with other dogs and would do best as an only male or in a home with a female dog. He is also great with cats and simply ignores them, making him an easy fit for a multi pet household. He is treat motivated, which helps with training, and he is already doing well with house manners. He is mostly potty trained, though a brief adjustment period in a new home may bring some marking as he settles in. Dexter has a fun, endearing personality that sneaks up on you. Underneath his calm exterior is a sweet and slightly goofy guy who will make you smile without even trying. He enjoys companionship but does not demand constant attention, making him a wonderful balance of affectionate and independent. He is currently receiving treatment for heartworm disease and will be ready for adoption once that is complete. In the meantime, he is soaking up love and learning just how good life can be. If you are looking for a gentle, loyal companion with a calm nature and a quietly funny side, Dexter may be exactly who you have been waiting for.
