Rex earned his nickname honestly... and repeatedly.

This handsome goofball believes fences are merely suggestions, crates are tiny prisons, and closed doors are personal challenges. He's an escape artist with absolutely no regrets.

Rex is about 2–3 years old, incredibly sweet, and his favorite place in the world is wherever you are. He gets along great with other dogs, cats are still a mystery, and if he could choose between exploring the neighborhood or hanging out with his person, he'd happily choose both!

He's landed in the shelter a few times because of his wandering ways, but the solution isn't complicated: just be one step smarter than Rex. A secure yard, a watchful eye, and keeping him safely contained will set him up for success.

If you're looking for a loyal sidekick with a big personality, a heart of gold, and just a tiny bit of "Houdini" mixed in, Rex might be your guy. Just don't leave him in charge of the locks.

Rex's personality shines when you can laugh with him while being honest about the kind of home he'll need.
