Hello my name is Dex. I was rescued as a puppy by Valley Dogs (see my cute pictures below). I was quite malnourished but now you can see I am quite healthy! I have a beautiful smile (especially with that undershot jaw) and a great profile (with my docked tail). So, I have a lot of the boxer traits but the lab appears to have taken over the rest of my physique.

Today I am a gentle boy who just loves humans and all I want to do is please you. I have grown up with children and other dogs. I do not like it if other dogs act aggressive or are pushy. Also I really like to chase the birds. Sometimes I catch them. So, if you have birds as pets I might not make a good addition. Because of my attraction to birds I was returned to Valley Dogs.

Currently I need a foster home. I just had surgery on my knee to repair an old injury that my previous owner did not take care of. The repair was done by one of the nations best orthopedic surgeons so, in a few months I will be better than new. Can you help me recover? I need a home that will allow me to rest and go through my exercises as prescribed by the vet. Or would you like to just take me home and let me love on you?
