Well hello there!  
I'm DEXTER DAWG!  
It's nice to meet you!
I'm another rescue who was lucky enough
to find a home with the Grants. 
I'll be updating you on some of the "goings on" 
around our house. 
So, buckle up!
Here we go ...
Even though I'm a Shorkie, 
This applies to my Mom & me!

WOW!  Won't be long! 
Here's a great poem by our friend Gene. 
He LOVES hummingbirds! 
AND, he even mentioned ME!
"And a cheery good morning to friends of mine
Happy to say i am doing just fine
Oh yes i am ready , and fully aware
The coming of Spring is everywhere
Tree limbs so bare will soon turn green
Beautiful plants with colors will then be seen
The days will be hot from a sun so bright
It's that time of year so filled with delight
 I will hang out the feeder of water and sugar
And watch with delight for the first "little booger"
I find hummers awesome , and they bring me joy
Like watching Dexter play with a brand new toy
Their aerial maneuvers are beyond compare
They effortlessly do what other birds wouldn't dare
A tiny little bird just filled with beguile 
The antics they do will make you smile
But enough for now , don't want to get sappy
Hope everyone there is healthy and happy !!"

Well, here we go!  Denton FarmPark for the Malpass Brothers Festival. 
​Our first camping trip this year!
Picture
Looks like we're not the only ones going to the festival!
Picture
Remember our friend, Gene, the poet?
​  Well, he also makes the BEST Apple pie around these parts. 
Picture
Camping is so much fun!
​ I really loved our campsite this year -- the best site we've had yet.
Picture

No trip is complete without rain.
 And boy did we have it!
Picture
Do you know what good samaritans look like? 
Well, just look at this picture of our new friends.
They not only rescued Gene, 
but gave my parents a ride after that terrific rain event. 
Picture
How about that shirt Mom is wearing? 
​ Is that not a cute dawg?
Picture
Papa is jamming! 
The videoing of this event was interrupted because "someone brought a durn dawg"!
They were everywhere!
Picture
Listening to music is hard work 
And it's HOT!
Picture
Some things never change --- 
chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry!
Hey, where's my ice cream?


Picture

You know, "the dawg eats ice cream"!
Ok, being hand fed treats might make up for being left out.

Picture
Well, there they go.
​  That means crate time for me!

. 
BUT, at least I got to go to Chic-fil-A for lunch!
