I have often stated, "Dogs are a great example of how to live your life." Be loving, greet people as if you missed them, live for today be resilient.
but they can be a nusiance killing babies;
in wild packs they produce much manure
If a dog can learn this we humans can learn to be more what humans should be, kind, considerate, loving, caring for all creatures and the world.
As long as humans could get paid for it, they could do anything. Problem is, humanity as constructed is a zero-sum game.
Dogs are the best example of potential that humans have. They’re the very best people
We can overcome obstacles, like Dexter. It may take some time, but, persevere. What a great story!
Amen.
What a wonderful story. How can you not fall in love with this determined and lovable dog? And I love how no one had to teach him this. He figured it all out himself. 🐶🐶🐶♥♥♥
Amazing story
I saw this on TV this morning. So uplifting. Determined Dexter. Love him! He walks with such pride
Yes ,Dextor has definitely raised his perspective up to a whole new level !
@@melindanix7363 raised his back leg, sprays urine, and falls over
@@pjo2386 Wow. A deep thinker you are ! What's the dog to do when he walks by a fire hydrant ? hahaha .
I have a feeling he wants those wheels to replace his front legs !!!
@@melindanix7363 yes, that dogs a sho woff, get him operated on, a pair of battery operated transpants at the front with headlights ....
Dexter figured out how to live his now ……even better life .. because he can see the world from higher ground and doing it all with joy!
Go Dexter!
✨👏✨👏✨👏✨👏✨👏✨❤️
What a smart happy dog
This is a Shinning Example of How 🐕 Dogs Live in the Moment, Don't feel Sorry for Themselves. They are Incredible Creatures
Damn you Steve Hartman you made me cry again; please never stop these stories; they make my week and bring me happy tears.
Yes I cried too!! Beautiful story! Please take care and stay safe!
Agree, he gets to me most every time. Even when the tears doesn't flow the hearts is uplifted
Brings me tears of happiness
Amazing doggie & his human mom.
nope. dog
Thank you for the tears of joy that flowed from watching Dexter's story....I really needed them🐾🌱🌻🌞🌈
Amen to that!!
He's so Precious & inspiring!!!
Outstanding, should win best, most motivational story of the year!
Hugs and kisses to Dexter. He made my day!!!
I'm in love with Dexter. What an amazing, good boy.
Absolutely Beautiful 💜🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Awwww he is awesome
LOVE WILL HELP EVERYONE HEAL !!! WHAT A SWEET SOUL !!!
Absolutely amazing but not surprised at Dexter's resiliance. We have an energetic Brittany that was badly mauled by a neighbor's Rottweiler. Almost lost her. But the vet got her stitched up, we nursed back to health and now she's her active self. This one made me stop what I was doing, go downstairs, and give her a tummy rub.
Dexter is such a cutie and so inspirational. That kinda attitude is just instinctual in animals. They don't cry and feel sorry for themselves. They just try to figure out a way for them to overcome whatever obstacle is standing in their way and they get it done. Us humans are like that too eventually. It takes a while for us to get it done though.
As all ways Steve finds the best positive stories.We need more positive stories,then the negativity of the news.Thanks Steve.☮
Dexter taught us all a lesson. Overcome and adapt. Loved his story and him❤
What a great human dog love him 😍
Another beautiful uplifting story , thanks for sharing. 👍👍
their hips aren't built for bipedal locomotion, but...clever guy for trying it.
hope he can keep it up
Then , we will get him a walker & put roller skates on his back paws 🐾!!! When I see something like this ,I just want to say allow me to empower you & problem solve on a Neverending basis ..
Gosh ,this dog moves my soul !! America needs more soul-movement right now so that we may build bridges among one another....We are way too divided !!
Go 'head, Dexter!! What a great story.
I don’t see many dogs like this one. How sweet it is, to be one of our comfort stories, after witnessing so much emotional and horrific pieces, throughout this morning.
Really proves that the old saying adapt and overcome
Always push forward!
Regardless of what you face!!
P.S. we don't deserve Doggos..
Beautiful story.. this journalist does such amazing work. ❤️
Thank you for sharing your dog's story with us..
Wow...truly amazing and inspiring. :)
Dexter's lovely lady owner has a fabulous loving personality. What she said at the end gave me goosebumps!
Love him! Love him! Love him!
He’s a real life Snoopy!
I'm so happy that beautiful dog survived and has a happy life.
Ouray Colorado is such a beautiful little town in the winter they hold the world championship ice climbing competition where people scale up frozen waterfalls simply amazing to go along with that amazing dog 🐕
Of course He’s Special, He’s a Coloradan, all true Coloradans are special. From a true Colorado Native! 🐾
Beautiful place!
Tears of sweetness.
OMG he looks so cute and so adorable. I wanna hug him so bad lol. 😄
Oh, this is wonderful. I'm looking at his style of walking, as their hind legs are not like a human's legs. My only gripe is the man on the video calling it "absurdity." I don't think this is one bit "absurd." I think it's how this dog copes with his handicap in a marvelous way.
Dexter just taught the world a lesson on overcoming obstacles, very touching 🥰.
Dexter you are blessed, and gifted my pawed friend ❤, amen.
I hope that doggie feels the love good people have for him.
Just want Dexter's owner to know I just love everything this dog 'stands' for !!! What a precious furbaby who is the epitome of inspiration for those who want to get back up on their feet :-)))
I am wondering if the owner has consulted with a Veterinarian & surgeons related to amputating his remaining front limb?! It just seems if it were amputated Dextor would have more ease of movement & more coordination.(I noted the leg flopping)
he can apply for transpants, and a wheelchair
What a great story, brings tears to my eyes
Dogs teach us SO MUCH
GOD BLESS HIM!!!!!!!!
Dexter has awfully strong back muscles. God bless you Dexter 🤗
*God Bless Dexter*

So sweet. Get him some booties to save his pads from wearing down. Lovely story.
What a precious beautiful story, I’m so happy for Dexter and for you. This inspires me to keep fighting and trying whenever you get knocked down. If he can we can. God bless you guys. 🥹❣️
Saw this story last Sunday. Gives a whole new meaning to perseverance.
Nature will always find a way!
Finally, the answer to "What's up dog?"
I live just 30 miles from Ouray and had never hear of Dexter. It’s unreal looking and yet obviously doable.
Dexter, is a great Dog. I saw this on Sunday Morning. Glad I get to see this again, On UTUBE. What a wonderful Dog. I still have all my facilities, I have a bad neck and arm problem, but seeing this very beautiful wonderfull Dog, just makes ones day. Thank you all for sharing this with everyone!.🐶🥰👏🤗🐾
Keep On Truckin' Dexter!!!
TEARS DEXTER WE LOVE YOU ALSO
My one concern is, if walking on his back legs becomes a health issue or causes spinal damage or hip problems please don't allow Dextor to walk upright .please use the wheel support method as his only mobility. I want Dextor to have a long life & pain free life.
Heart warming 😀

Inspired... sending Dexter lots of love from Kenya 🇰🇪
This proves dogs are the number one miracle that humans are blessed with.
Love hearing ,stories like this one Thank you for sharing his story. Made my day
Love stories like this and Dexter!!!😘🥰😍🤩
That’s pretty amazing. My cat stands completely up on her hind legs. She doesn’t walk around much in that piston but it’s pretty amazing seeing a dog like that figuring out how to be his independent and happiest self
With God anything is Possible. This is the most beautiful miracle. Is giving hope and enjoyment to thousands. An earth Angel.
I think their was a story on Bondi Vet of dog that walked on it's back legs. Very inspirational story of this sweet fur baby. Made my day.

My pandemic dog is a tri pod. I got her on Lundi Gras - a carnival Holliday familiar to people in New Orleans - and named her Lundi - this is so moving
Best thing out of the pandemic was her adopting me as her human
Handsome boy! Not only good looking, but smart, too. Go, Dexter!💗
