Happy Tales: Dexter

“I had a wonderful experience with Home Again Bancroft.  I was quite a while thinking about, researching and browsing the sites of dogs for adoption when I tripped over your site and the met the eyes of Dexter, who is now my special, trusting, loving little partner.

“We are definitely a team, both giving and getting loads of love from each other.  He is also part of a large extended family at Heritage Manor in Pembroke ON.  As one resident said, “We all own him now.”  Dexter goes to the lobby of the building to visit the many regulars who wait patiently to pet and cuddle him.  He knows exactly which residents have a bag of treats in their walker baskets and will sit, shake a paw and lie down, to get one.  The smiles he receives warm my heart greatly. When we are in our own apartment, he is the gentlest fellow who never leaves my side.

“I have no words to describe what he means to me.  I have adopted the perfect dog for myself and my home.  Home Again were quick to respond to my first request, led me through the process (technology is not my strength), prepared Dexter for adoption in a foster home (no kennels) and made all the connections to complete the process.  Thank you so very much from the bottom of my heart!!!” — says Cheryl Liot.

Dexter, a Papillion/Pomeranian cross, was surrendered to Home Again by his senior owner, when he was 9 years old.  It was a challenge to get him to Cheryl’s residence during a COVID-19 pandemic lockdown of her building.  Home Again volunteers do whatever it takes to ensure that our pets go to the best forever home.  Now, Dexter works for his treats — dogs are happiest when they are working.
