Dexter

Breed: Mini Foxie

Barking from: Cronulla , NSW

What's up dog?

I was mentally drained, suffered with anxiety and depression, then I found Dexter at 3 months old. Ive never had a puppy before, but the immediate impact Dex has had is phenomenal. He literally goes everywhere with me. He helps me keep calm in anxious moments. When he isnt cruising on the motorbike with his helmet and goggles, he will sit on my shoulder while I go shopping and do my day-to-day activities. He lets me know when we need a break, and a few of the local cafes know his puppuccino order off by heart. Its been 20 years since Ive had a dog, and now Dexters 6 months old. I cant imagine my life without him, and the amount of people he makes smile daily is awesome.
