Dexter Is Warren's Pet Of The Week

WARREN, NJ — Meet Dexter! He has been chosen as Warren Patch's Pet Of The Week.

"Dexter is an 11 year old English Yellow Lab. He’s a big boy and can sniff out even the tiniest piece of food! Dexter and his mom can be found walking around Basking Ridge every morning.

Any time of the year, Dexter can be found in the neighbor’s pond or in the brook swimming. Don’t expect him to retrieve a small stick, Dexter will only retrieve large branches or logs.

Hide your shoes when you walk into the house because Dexter will take them and hide them in his room. When the family is gone, Dexter takes their clothes and brings them in his bed to sleep with."

— Christine Ziegler, Basking Ridge
