Description: Lexie is a 2 1/2 year old Terrier mix. She was originally in South Florida where her owner left her in a crate in an abandoned yard with no food water or shelter. It is believed she recently had a litter of puppies, and once he sold the puppies had no use for her anymore. Lexie is now safe with us and ready to be the love of YOUR life! Despite everything, she's the sweetest dog you'll ever meet. Nothing makes her happier than simply cuddling up next to you. She is not high energy and would do best in a less active home. She is very patient with kids and other dogs. She would also do best on a grain free food since she appears to get very itchy on grain food. Meet Lexie and you won't be able to stop from falling in love with her!
The Terrier is a good-natured, amusing, extremely loyal and affectionate family pet, which is good with children and adults. Almost always obedient, it is always eager to please its master. It is an extremely courageous and intelligent guard dog that is very full of vitality. They are highly protective of their owners and the owner's property. It is usually very friendly, but has an uncanny ability to know when it needs to protect and when everything is okay. Excellent with children in the family, they have a high pain tolerance and will happily put up with rough child play. As with any breed, they should not be left alone with unfamiliar children. Used as all around working farm dogs, they were referred to as "the poor mans horse". They are strong and generally weigh between 40 and 70 lbs. They have a life expectancy of about 12 - 14 years.
