About Rex
Rex is ready to steal your heart! This 8-year-old bundle of joy knows his way around a cozy home, from lounging on the couch to charming you for treats. He thrives in the company of other small dogs, especially his Chihuahua foster sister, and loves to play outside. You'll often find Rex following you like a loyal shadow or relaxing next to you after an energetic romp in the yard. Adjusting to a new home takes some time, as he can be a bit shy at first. But with love and patience, he'll show his true personality—and trust me, his puppy dog eyes will melt yours. Rex prefers a home where someone is around most of the time, as he doesn’t like being alone. It's also important to note that he's not a fan of cats, so a feline-free zone is a must. Rex is excited to explore new adventures with his forever family and needs someone to help him adjust to his new surroundings. A consistent routine will help him find his way to the back door and feel at home. With a mix of spunk and relaxation, Rex can't wait to bring joy to your life! Reach out to Border Tails Rescue if you’re ready to make Rex part of your family!
