I haven't given you an update lately on Dexter. Now I can give it first hand! Dexter came last night to spend the weekend with us because his new owner had to travel out of town to visit with his ailing father.
He has grown!!! He is such a handsome boy, solid black (you can hardly see his eyes), has much of a Chow look about him, but a wonderful temperament and shorter hair like a Laborador Retriever. I think he represents a good mix. He is as tall as my smaller Golden Retreiver, Honey, at six months old. His black coat is so shiny and pretty and he has gotten along beautifully with my girls. It is as if he has never been separated from them. Right now Dexter is lying on his back sleeping in the middle of the living room floor. I was awakened at 6 am when he decided that he could jump the gate in the kitchen! Of course on a day when I thought I might sleep late. No way!
I have to tell you that his new owner was reluctant to leave last night and has already called three times to check on him. I definitely found this boy the perfect place to live and certainly don't mind being the "kennel" whenever he need us. What a wonderful puppy.
