Meet Dexter, a 10-year-old Chihuahua with a big personality and tender heart. He needs time to trust, but once he does, he's a precious lap dog who gives sweet kisses. Dexter is house- and crate-trained and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. He thrives in a quiet, adult home with a securely fenced yard, as he enjoys exploring at his own pace. Due to initial barking when crated, a home without shared walls is essential, and he is not suited for young children or rowdy environments. Dexter deserves a peaceful, loving home to relax in.
