Dexter

Sadly, we lost Dexter on Nov 30th. We knew he was sick and we were so happy to have had him this long. He was born July 8, 2001 and since we knew the breeders, they gave us first pick. We brought him home at 6 weeks old to our other dog, Blu. They were the best of pals. As time went on, Dexter moved with Clif and I around to different homes, saw 2 beautiful babies be born and grow up and then introduced to our latest puppy, Daisy. His life was full...he enjoyed many trips to Phx where he loved the warm weather, and he was very good about walking on a leash (no pulling). At the end, it was much harder than expected to say good-bye...but the dr said his tummy had twisted. Surgery might have been possible, but he was pretty bad by then and the cost was too much. Clif stayed home with the kids and they all knew when they said good-bye...that would be it. He is missed and the old habits are hard to break. We still come home and expect him to jump and slobber on us when we enter the door. Or to see him waiting by the window to come in. A great dog and the breed is highly recommended. We know he is in heaven reuniting with Blu and his other dog friends. The kids and I are happy to know that Jesus is throwing the ball for him again. Love ya D!!
