Dexter may not look like the other smushy-faced dogs in our rescue, but don't let that stop you. He is the perfect family dog! He is young enough to provide a lifetime of companionship and love, but old enough to have grown out of the naughty puppy phase. It's a win-win for his new family!
Dexter is fully potty trained, walks on a leash, and LOVES to cuddle his family. He has a silly, playful personality and loves to play with his toys. Dexter has a lot more energy than a typical Frenchie due to his Dachshund side and he loves to go on walks. He would definitely benefit from regular exercise whether it be walks or playing fetch. He also loves being outside and watches the birds and squirrels in his backyard while lounging in the sun. He'd be happy to help supervise your yard work or provide entertainment at your next cookout. His foster family suspects he may be part kangaroo as he loves to jump and hop, he will need a secure fence for sure.
Dexter is friendly with everyone he meets. As far as dogs go, he may need slower introductions due to his bouncy, energetic personality.
Dexter sleeps in his kennel at night, but he told me he'd really like to sleep in bed with his family.

While in foster care, all our dogs are thoroughly vetted. Any discovered medical issues will be disclosed above. Our Lucky Bulldogs (and their smushie-faced buddies) are cleared by their vet for adoption prior to us accepting applications. All our dogs will be up to date on Rabies & DHPP vaccinations, up to date on Heartworm preventative after a negative Heartworm test, and spayed or neutered prior to being adopted out to their forever homes. Often times, our dogs are given dentals and sometimes nare-widening surgery if needed while under anesthesia. All surgical and medical history we have will be shared with adopters. Further details can be discussed with the foster volunteer during the phone interview for the applications that are chosen to proceed to the phone interview part of the adoption process.
All our dogs are crate trained unless otherwise noted on their "All About" pages.

We will accept applications for our available dogs for 1-2 weeks except in cases of overwhelming popularity where we may stop accepting new applicants sooner. Once we have stopped accepting applications, we will review them and proceed with a phone call with our top two applications to chat about the dog being applied for, go over the adoption process, and answer any questions the potential adopter has. After phone calls take place, we will decide on our top applicant choice and proceed to contact them to schedule a home visit (in person or via video chat), and check vet and personal references before the adoption is ready to be completed. This process can take up to 6 weeks.
