 Quick Bio:
 Birthday: March 21st 2003
 Likes: lounging on my futon, running around like crazy in the backyard, playing in the rain, doggie friends (specially girl doggies!), car rides, butt rubs, chasing birds, watching the new small human, doing drive by lickings

Pet-Peeves: Garbage trucks! Being crated (thankfully mommy got rid of that dreaded thing), no doggies to play with, Toby when he tries to do the humpy on me(he is confused cause we are both BOYS & both FIXED!)

Favorite Toy: kong bone, plastic dental bone and cow hoofs, attempts to take baby toys but fails

Favorite Food: CHEEEEEESEEE GLORIOUS CHEEEEEEESEEEE, baby spit up

Favorite Walk: anywhere, everywhere ~ show him a leash and he does the spin and twirl dance!

Best Tricks: sleep on my back with legs straight up ..ok not a trick but who cares! pick up after daddy, pick up his socks/boxers for him..thou usually play with them & tear holes in them ~hey at least they are not on the floor anymore! Canine Vaccum!

Arrival Story: My husband and I were looking for a lab to add to our growing family and I went on petfinder.com and found two dogs we really like. One was from a lab rescue and another was just from a stray rescue. The first dog we got to see was from the stray rescue and once we saw him we fell in love. He had been found at an elementary school and no one ever claimed him so they called the rescue and his foster had him for two weeks before we adopted him. We drove over an hour to see him and instantly fell in love! The car ride home was so a riot because Dex kept trying to sneak into the front seat with his daddy. Now with our daughter added to the family, we are complete (thou I would really love to add another dog to the group or even a cat ~ surprisingly Dex seems to really like cats!) ! We love Dex more each and every new day we have with him!

Bio: Adopted on March 21, 2004 - Dex has proven multiple times already just how wonderful and loving he is! He loves to play with all my family's dogs and all the neighborhood kids love to come and pet on him when he is outside with mommy and daddy. We could not have ever even hoped for a better dog! He has totally and completely stolen our hearts! We just found out that he is in fact a purebreed yellow lab - his coloring is called fox red..supposedly a rarer (but not rare) coloring in yellow labs! Well isn't he super special! ;) He is so sweet and gentle with the baby and often follows who ever is holding her!

Forums Motto: it's all about the cheese

ok so I have been a BAD DOG and have not written since...DECEMBER! wow..time sure flies..
The human kid Kiersten Finley has really REALLY grown. Mommy and Daddy got excited a while back when she started crawling and now think that soon she should be walking up right like they do..This will probably be better because right now when I chase her when she is crawling I have to look out for her cause she is shorter then me but once she walks she will be just as tall as me..Speaking of the kid..mommy and daddy are all excited because she is about to be a year old.
Mommy and Daddy left me at this place called a Kennel over the past weekend. They went and visited Daddy's sister Rebecca up in Ft. Worth. Granddude and CiCi went with them so Toby and Jackie went to this Kennel place with me. It was kinda fun I guess. I got to see and meet other dogs and I didn't get humped once by Toby. He was a little freaked out being there. He cried and even went to the potty in his room! The humans there called him a 98 lb weenie...heehee
Mommy has been talking about us moving to a bigger house but I try to tell her the one we have is nice...Mommy says we need a bigger house because one day she may want more human kids...
great more humans to train!:)

So my family celebrated this thing called Xmas..I got to go over to Granddude and Grandma CiCi's house again and got to hang out with Toby and Jackie! wooo hooo!! Toby tried to do the humpy thing to me again but I did it back to him!! HAHA!! Grandma CiCi's tree in her house had tons and tons of these boxes and bags and huge socks (stockings mommy called them) filled with stuff...there were several of them filled with bones and treats but they were high on top of the fireplace...DARN!! I got to meet my daddy's sister and her husband...they don't have any doggie kids of thier own...and they don't have human kids either so they spent most of the time we were there playing with my human kid Kiersten Finley. Everyone kept eating and drinking and opening boxes occationally...everyone oooohed and ahhhhed and FINALLY they got all those stuffed socks down for Toby, Jackie and me to get into. Toby and I got huge rubber bones from Old Navy but we distroyed them super quick and we both accidently swallowed some and well..later we spit them back up in the back yard..along with some food and stuff....usually we probably would of just eaten it back but mommy and Grandma CiCi kept yelling GROSSSSSS!!!! and then Granddude would just wash the puke away with the water hose. A funny thing happened thou while we were all outside...it started to rain..well it was not really rain ..it was these watery things that slowly floated down like rain ..mom called it sleet and Granddude called it snow...whatever it was ..all the humans got soooooooooooo excited and started running around outside and taking pictures and even brought out the human baby and dressed her up in these big fluffy coat thingy and took tons of pictures of her in that rain-snow stuff. Toby and I just looked at them and then at each other and then we just lay down and went to sleep...humans are just wierd sometimes!

So yesterday Gramma Cici came over and it was very hectic at the house. Daddy said Finn had to go to the doctor...I got a little nervous because I have been to the doctor and thou I love the people, they always try to cut my nails and often stick things in my mouth and my..well...my rear area!
I think Finn knew something was up because she started to be really fussy and make faces and whine ...then daddy realized that mommy forgot to leave him the big carrier thingy they put Finn in when they take her for a walk...see I am much easier because I just need a leash for my walks...well daddy then found another smaller carrier in Finn's room but it was in a huge box . I went in to investigate (I have to smell everything that comes in since I am head of security..need to know what is in my house don't ya know!)..well when daddy got it out..it was not what I thought...it was not like the other carrier..it was all broken up...I looked at daddy and gave him my best I DIDN"T BREAK IT look that I could. Luckily daddy after a while got it back together...thou I had to leave a few times because he looked like he was going to start throwing it around...plus he gave out these aghhhhhhhhhh yells a few times..
well they finally got going and left me home for a while. Course I checked every room and even watched the fish in the fish tank for a while and then went to the laundry area and stole some socks out of the basket. I have a collection of them and I am trying to find matches for the ones I have but can't ever find a match.
Daddy finally got back and Finn was sleeping...I tried to ask her if she was ok but she just slept and slept. Daddy said she had a hard day and had gotten shots! YIKES!! IT WAS WORSE THAN I THOUGHT! THEY SHOT HER!!! Last time I got shot..I went to sleep and then woke up with my man areas missing!
But she finally woke up and was her usual blabbling drooling self. So of course I had to clean her face! I love that kid!
