Patient Updates
Aaaaand he's gone! Good luck out there, Dexter. We're all rooting for you!
Dexter came in a tiny pup still with his lanugo fur but has now grown up and is in the biggest pre release pool on site!
Dexter has been upgraded to a training pool and is now figuring out how to compete for food. He seemed a little distracted when we last checked in on him, but he'll figure this out quickly.
Dexter's first exam found nothing out of the ordinary. He was born prematurely, and that comes with a few issues that staff are keeping a close eye on.
We were there to see the rescue and we are so glad to hear that Dexter is doing well! we will check in every day to make sure he is doing good.
So happy to see Dexter in good care! My parents found Dexter stranded and was able to call MMR for help! Strive on, Dexter!
We were with Hannah and family at the scene. Glad he has a happy ending!
Apparently he was premature, and you could see the umbilical cord hanging off his belly. He was so cute! Wishing him lots of love as he grows up.
Our family was there when Dexter was rescued. Wishing him a life full of joy, and glad he will have a happy ending. We will always have him in our hearts.
I love Dexter! This other couple found him and called us over to see
him and then they called the MMR. Then we waited for an hour but it was
worth it!
