The case of the Magical Moving Chair continues with Lady Mum never catching Dexter in the act of moving it. On any other given day when Lady Mum returns home from work, the chair is moved to face the window. This particular evening, Lady Mum is in the kitchen when she hears movement in the living room. "Dex! What are you up to now?" The sound of running paws can be heard and a loud thump. Lady Mum enters the living room to see the chair facing the door and Dexter curled up on

Lady Mum and Dexter are taking their evening walk out in the field as Lady Mum is watching the sky turn all kinds of dark when her phone starts blaring a Tornado Warning siren. "Dex, time to head back bud. Storm's a comin." "Ah man...we just got out Here! I don't wanna go in! Watching the sky as the wind suddenly picks up, Lady Mum says, "Now Dex. We have to get back now!" Back in the house, Lady Mum grabs the emergency basket, Dexter's leash, bowl, water, lantern and snacks

Dexter wakes Lady Mum up at 5:30 a.m. with a flap of his ears right in her face, just as Digger used to do. With a groan, Lady Mum reaches out to pet Dexter. "Ughh...Good Morning Dexter." Dexter runs in a quick circle and comes back to Lady Mum. "Ya getting up? Let's do something! We can go for a walk! Wanna go for a walk! I gotta go!" Laughing, Lady Mum rolls out of bed with Dexter jumping around her excitedly and tripping her up as she tries to get dressed. Once downstairs,

The new life of a Dexter. Running and playing outside in the mud. Running and playing in the house. Eat supper. Lady Mum sits on the couch and watches Dexter roam back and forth across the living room. "What's up Dex? You seem a bit edgy." Dexter stops to look at Lady Mum. "I wanna do something , but I don't know what." "Well, get your ball. We can play with that." "Neh..." Lady Mum looking around, "Go get your rope, we can play tug." "Neh..." Lady Mum looking at Dexter's tir

Lady Mum comes home from work to a very exuberant Dexter. After a long walk in the rain and supper, Dexter begins racing around the house. Upstairs and onto the bed, a giant leap off and back downstairs into the dining room. Back upstairs with a jump on the bed and another giant leap to the floor. Racing around the house like a crazy thing. Ears flapping and a huge smile on his face. Lady Mum stands out of the way watching, laughing and cheering him on. "Wow Dex! Look at you

Dexter hears a knock on the door and trots up to Lady Mum and says, "Is that knocking? Should I bark? Should I run upstairs?" Laughing, "Dexter, it's just Gramma and Aunt Nicki coming to meet you." Dexter puts himself beside Lady Mum and hesitantly follows her to the door. "What's a Gramma and Aunt Nicki?" Opening the door, "You'll see Dex. Here they are!" Dexter gets busy sniffing and meeting his new Gramma and Aunt Nicki then runs to get his toys. Gramma and Aunt Nicki sit

Dexter has found the perfect spot to sit and watch the action outside. "Lady Mum? We going for a walk?" "Dex, we just went for a long walk half an hour ago." Dexter heaves a big sigh and turns to look out the window, acting very deprived. Chuckling, Lady Mum asks "What do ya see out there Dex?" "Pretty sure that's a squirrel. If I was out there, I could chase him." "Oh, I am positive you would be a good chaser. We need to learn a bit yet." Turning to look at Lady Mum, "I'm sm

Lady Mum found this box thing. She keeps putting my toys in it. I help her by taking them all out. She was walking around talking to herself, saying "I wonder where we should keep this Dexter? Where it won't be in the way." She put the box thing by the big long chair and went in the kitchen. I thought that was a silly place to put it. So I drug it over to my chair. I hear Lady Mum ask me what I'm doing, so I jump in my chair and wait. In she comes, laughs and says "Dexter! Th

Mum and Dexter are in the back yard waiting on Sissy and Cousin Otis to arrive for a meet and greet. A car pulls into the driveway and Dexter immediately stands at attention. "Lady Mum! Who is that? Who is it?" "That is Sissy and Otis. They are coming to meet you so we need to be on good behavior ok?" Otis and Sissy come in to the back yard with Otis saying in a somewhat confused voice "Mum! Who is that? Gram!! Who IS that? What is he doing here? Who is he? Where did he come

We've got ourselves settled in to the car, ready for our first adventure in public. "Uh...Lady Mum?" Turning to look at Dexter sitting straight and rigid in the back seat. "Yes, Dex?" Wide-eyed and unblinking, "What's an adventure?" "We are going to Tractor Supply to look at toys for you." "I'm not sure about this Lady Mum." Mum turns her head to look at Dexter and says in a soft voice,"Oh Dexter. I want you to know that if you go somewhere with me, you will always come home

Dexter's first full day at his new home. Mum arrives home from work and is greeted at the door with a very excited Dexter. "Dexter! Hey there sweetie! No messes! What a good boy!" Dexter quickly runs around the dining room table and returns with his bone in his mouth, runs to the door and sits, patiently waiting while Mum changes into boots and her outside coat. "Ok, Dex, we're ready, let's go!" While walking along, Mum keeps up a running commentary as Dexter sniffs here and

Puttering around in the kitchen, talking softly to Dexter as he wanders back and forth in the kitchen, not leaving my sight. "It's your first night here. I know everything is a bit overwhelming for you sweetie and I can see you are not quite sure what to think of all this. You've not said a word yet and that's okay. I can wait until your more comfortable here. You just take your time." A few hours go by and you tentatively approach, sit in front of me and look up, with those
