Dexter

Two days after I arrived back in Houston, Dexter, one of the dogs at my sister-in-law's house died. My sister-in-law and family were out of town at the time. My wife and I were "taking care" of Dexter and two other dogs, Xiao Gu and Kody. Xiao Gu stayed with Dexter at home while Kody stayed at a kennel.

We picked up Kody to bring him home when we found Dexter.

Dexter was an extremely obese corgi and likely died of heart failure. He spent most of his life at an alzheimers facility where the residents fed him continuously. He would routinely take vacations to my sister-in-law's for diets. He lost a lot of weight at our "fat farm," but probably never enough. Dexter always had some trouble getting around, but he always looked happy and was a simple, sweet dog.

Dexter was 6.
