Looking for a scruffy little leading man to steal your heart? Say hello to Dexter, a 13-lb black and tan terrier mix who’s sweeter than a standing ovation! With his scruffy good looks (think Sandy from Annie), Dexter is ready to be the star of your life just don’t ask him to sing Tomorrow, he’s more into cuddles than curtain calls. At 11 years young, Dexter has plenty of pep in his step and zero diva attitude. He loves people, other dogs, and probably stagehands too! This lovable boy had a recent dental and only needed one tiny tooth pulled pretty impressive for a senior! He’s also rocking a shiny, healthy coat thanks to some routine meds that help maintain his liver function and keep those pesky skin allergies away. Dexter does have a grade 2 heart murmur and a grade 3 medial patella luxation, but don’t worry he’s not letting that slow him down one bit. He’s an affectionate little love bug who’s all about snuggles, belly rubs, and soaking up the spotlight in a cozy forever home. Located in Gulfport, MS and ready to shine in his new role as your best friend.
