00:00Hi, it's DHA's Rock and Rough, and I am Terry Carr. I am here with my great friend, Meredith Petrillo from the Denville Animal Shelter, friends of the Denville Animal Shelter.
00:12This guy is just so incredible. He's a young guy. He's about five months old. Love, love, love bug beyond belief. Look at this wagging tail.
00:23And I mean, he's just an unflappable, sweet, incredible dog. This is Dexter. He's a young guy. He's about five months old, Meredith.
00:31Tell us a little bit about Dexter. I just can see how loving he is. He came in with a sister, correct?
00:36He did. He came in with his sister, Morgan, and they've been at the shelter for about three weeks now.
00:42We've been working on training. We've done elevators. We do municipal buildings. He goes in and plays at the police station.
00:49And he's actually a very, very well-behaved dog. He's housebroken, totally vaccinated.
00:57And he still needs to be neutered, but we're going to let that go for another month or so because he is still young.
01:05But all in all, I would say this dog is a 10.
01:08He is a 10. I mean, literally, you can do anything to him. He's so sweet.
01:13He wants to just jump up on you and give you kisses and kisses and kisses and more kisses.
01:18Very attentive, very easily trained.
01:21And he's just such a happy guy.
01:25When you see a dog that's this happy all the time, it definitely warms your heart.
01:30He would make a great addition to any home.
01:31Let's check out Dexter hanging out at the WDHA studios on DHA's Rock and Rough.
01:36Meet Dexter from the Denville Animal Shelter, who stopped by WDHA's Rock and Rough to kiss the staff and spread joy.
01:45He is such a joyful boy.
01:48Dexter is about five months old and is at the shelter actually with his sister.
01:52He's a great hound lab mix, perfect pup in every way, super friendly, happy, and very affectionate.
01:58Dexter is also very smart and knows some basic commands.
02:01He's housebroken, too, and would make an amazing addition to just about any family.
02:06Dexter loves meeting new people, and we loved meeting him.
02:10And I love the Denville Animal Shelter.
02:11It's where I adopted my Rosie girl from.
02:13Meredith does such a great job working with the pups.
02:16Please reach out if you are looking for a pup that's young, but not too young, to join your pack.
02:21Adopt Dexter.
02:23Don't you love him?
02:24He's so sweet, and he's got these eyes that will just literally melt your heart.
02:29I love him.
02:30He's perfect.
02:30He's young, but he's not too young.
02:33He's about five months old.
02:35Very trainable.
02:36Again, housebroken already would make a great walking partner for summer months.
02:42And he's amazing.
02:43He's at the shelter with his sister.
02:46And, Meredith, if people would like to fill out an application, go to Facebook because Friends of the Denville Animal Shelter has a wonderful Facebook page.
02:52But if people want to reach out to you to fill out an application or maybe come in and set up a meet and greet with Dexter or his sister, how can they find you?
02:59They can reach me at 973-627-4900, extension 5.
03:04That's my work number, and I check my messages all day, so I'd be more than happy to set up a meet and greet.
03:11Dexter's great with other dogs, so if you are going to meet and greet, you bring your dog with you.
03:15And we'll see how that works out.
03:17I'm sure it'll work out fine.
03:18He's just an awesome guy.
03:20I want to get him moved this way so you can see this beautiful, sweet, lovely face.
03:25And he's just such a loving dog, and he's looking for a home to call his own.
03:28And I just love him.
03:29I'm, like, madly in love with this guy.
03:31He's so cute.
03:32Houndy.
03:32Probably houndy.
03:33He's got the little houndy face and houndy sweet eyes.
03:36There's definitely some Retriever in there, too.
03:38Yeah, a little Retriever in there as well.
03:42DHA's Rock and Rough, by the way, is being powered by all of my friends at Hometown Pet Shop with three New Jersey locations.
03:49And everybody also at Dover Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram on Route 46 in Rock, Rock, Rockaway.
03:55We always love giving you great shelter dogs and showing you the beautiful animals in our local shelters.
04:01Me and Meredith, we're just talking about how the shelters are full and a lot of animals need homes.
04:07So, please, if you're considering adding to your pack, don't forget to opt to adopt.
04:13And look at this guy, Dexter, would make a great addition to any family.
04:16What a face!
