On Sunday, October 27, 2014, my Mr. Man, Dexter passed in his sleep. He was estimated to be between ten and twelve years old.
I learned a lot with Dexter, about allergies, behavioral issues and about how fun a Bull Terrier can truly be.
Dexter came to me with a rough start, he was found runnin down a street in New Jersey, and about hairless. He had demodex. After he recovered from the demodex, it was discovered he had anxiety attacks and would cry and chase his tail. This is where I learned that the crate is your friend. Into the crate with him, and he just melted and went to sleep.
His life was plagued with allergies. He went through the allergy shot regimen, the baths, the food elimination tests, benedryl, and claratin. The ol' boy was allergic to chicken, and all poultry products, beef, any kind of grain, gr$#@!, weeds, trees and their pollen, human dander, even house flies. He required daily attentive care. However he was a Bull Terrier, and that didn't always go as planned.
Most of all, Dexter was a Bull Terrier. He loved to be next to you, under the covers, laying in the sun until he was baked, smelling flowers and sleeping. And he hated cats.
Rest well, Mr. Man, you truly were a wonderful old soul and will be missed.
