This is really cool and all, but is this news?
Ok
This dog sure has cheered me up when i've been having very bad and depressing days and reminds me not to give up.
God bless you 🙏🙏🙏
As a survivor from being beat up on a daily basis in school years ago, I can tell you this.
Life is ups and downs and I think I feel bad for those that never experience challenges.
I hope you're in an up now!😃
That dog was beaten up on a daily basis to be trained.
I’m sorry to break it to you but dogs like these are abused and hit daily to walk like this, it’s honestly really cruel to make a poor innocent animal do this
Same❤
Dogs live in the present, so they dont have a defeatist mindset and give up living because of their setback. They just move on and do their best living and surviving. That's my take on this.
My take is the dog injured himself as a puppy, so really adapted easier than an old dog. I think it's harder to teach an old dog new tricks.
Totally the best and most inspiring interpretation.
@@stephendacey8761 Dexter taught himself. "Can't teach an old dog new tricks" is an unproven and exclusively human-relevant theory. Animals are resilient to a degree that only the very best of us can approach. Although highly intelligent and a fully qualified nurse, my mother took a very uncomplicated, almost anti-intellectual, approach to her enforced new life when she became seriously handicapped at the age of 56. Diagnosed as needing constant total assistance, she took care of her own food, her hygiene, and her leisure. Before that we "smart kids" found her simplistic answer to every problem infuriating. Mother changed our minds.
A living being like Dexter could have inspired the song that says "No matter what they take from me, They can't take away my dignity". Dexter even enhanced his dignity, don't you think?
This is kinda harmful tho since dogs are not evolved to walk bipedal, it could be injured since they don’t have the right bone structure to support the weight
He doesn't realize we're moving into communism. How sweet!!
He's unaware that his owner will most likely eat him in the next year or two. What a great dog.
We sure need to have more stories like this nowadays
Afd2 is a great place to work for 25th of July in
Yes we do! I never miss Steve Hartman on CBS evening news on Fridays .
But I fast forward through everything else !
We need stories like this every moment. My gawd help us!
Why to keep us distracted?
My dog lost his back leg, now he is front wheelieing whole day
Can’t imagine that doggie chasing me at night 😨
Horror movie
Add rabies for a good time
I can imagine
🐾 Seeing this story of Dexter overcoming his handicap to walk upright like a person is so sweet and inspiring indeed! Keep going, Dexter! I wish you a long and healthy life with joy in every step you take! 💕
Give that dog a medal !!!!
This is one of the most beautiful stories I've Heard in years. Within all the ups and downs life trows at the us I find it very comforting to know that an animal with unconditional love can show us that there is still faith in this world.

@@JT-xj1pg you should know dad
@@TarHeelForevah thank you for pointing that out
This brings a lump to my throat, tears welling, not from sadness but because of beauty. In a world full of woes, a sweet dog, a DOG is teaching us! I love dogs, and have thought for a long time that they know things, and they do understand more than we ever thought possible.
I believe too because of Dexter and his walking that the world can come together and end the war in Ukraine, if Putin saw this video and followed Dexter on Instagram then he would say sorry and stop the war. I believe that to be the hope and possibility that this dog offers the people of Earth!
Dexter is showing us there are no limitations. He has certainly brought a big smile to my face. May GOD bless you and your family!
Agreed though I think it be more funny if they called him Walker😂
@@oisinlynch8427 👏👏🤣 That's cute. I agree that would be a perfect name ❤
Dexter the dog proves that adaption is not just for humans. Bravo Dexter...may you live long and prosperous.
The animal kingdom has been adapting since the first single celled organism existed...
I was so glad to see Dexter was crossing at a legal crosswalk at the end, rather than jaywalking.
No kidding. Colorado's governor is so morally backwards he probably would've sentenced poor Dexter to death.
This is the real meaning of " never give up" I'm learning alot from this.
I love all of Steve Hartman's uplifting stories and this is one of his best.
With bad news available 24/7 we definitely need more like this.
Dexter and his owner are winners in my book. Would've been so easy to just have him put to sleep. Now look at all the people he's inspiring.❤
Excellent point and all of us need inspiration during these times...wonderful story! 💝
Live your life Dexter just live your life what an inspiration you are all the love from South Africa
Heart warming.
Odd to see him on a leash while walking.
@@TheMICMusicInspirationChannel hes forced to
Dexter was broken and then he “fixed” himself and now helps humans get fixed, Human’s best friend ❤🐶
If Dexter lost his rear legs, he'd just do hand stands. This dog is my new hero!
That’s the 2nd one I’ve seen walking like that . The other one didn’t have a disability just taught himself to walk like a human. Never underestimate what an animal can learn what to do. I imagine he turns many heads. Wonderful
It makes sense when they adopt the behaviour due to disability, a fully able dog would never do this out of choice, be carefull what you cheer for as there are many documentaries of dogs being abused in order to get them to walk on two legs.
Man, this is the definition of 😎.
I absolutely love this story.
Thanks for taking care of Dexter.
I wish Dexter has a long prosperous life
Oh wow the best story this year, thanks Steve Hartman and Dexter 🥰
The shear will and determination is astounding
DEXTER IS A LIVING AND PURE DEFINATION OF NEVER GIVE UP.
GOD BLESS U DEXTER. ❤️
Dexter is an amazing dog in more ways then one , May God bless you both
Man I loved that what a precious puppy..
Wow !!! Hats off to Dexter !!!! My kind of doggie 🐕🥰♥️🙏
If I had a dog that walked like that, I wouldn’t even leash it, I would just hold it’s paw
Ouray has a leash law.
Dexter is one super intelligent dog! Wishing Dexter and hi owners well.
Thank you Dexter for lifting the spirits of so many People.
Dexter is my new hero.
Man's best friend. ❤
Dexter is an amazing dog. His determination to keep going is encouraging. What a good story.
Oh, thank you for this inspiration.
At 80 yo, 3 busted disks, and going through divorce, Dexter taught me the lesson I needed to learn. Blessed pup, blessed owner and blessed my friend who sent me the link 🙏🙏🙏
such an inspiration.❤
I just saw the news,with dexter I love him,thank you
Thanks, I needed that😊
I cried my eyes out when I saw this
What a wonderful dog and what an amazing town!beautiful!
He's adorable i wanna hug him 🫂
Legend
WOW! THEY ARE VERY INTELLIGENT BUT TO EXTEND TO THAT LEVEL?!! SPEECHLESS!
A friend of our's dog, Tony, sits up like a human all the time.
This is how we evolved
I officially ❤️ Dexter! 😘
Is it good for dogs spine walking like that?? I am just asking??He sure is a amazing dog.
There’s a video where they dog about cruelty to a dog that gets beaten if it doesn’t stand I think it talks about the causes to the spine
What a CHAMPION. Love your courage and strength Dexter. Love you
I remember him 🤩🥰😍
AMAZING DOG.
What a freakin city. And freaking dog!
Dexter puts me to shame (I'm so clumsy, I can barely walk straight). You go Dexter! 🥳
I love his little body rhythm,... too sweet,.. tooo cute. ❤❤👏🏿👏🏿
You're the best !!!Dexter ❤️😚🥰😘😘❤️❤️🙏🙏👍😘😍😍🥰🥰😀
This is an awesome dog.He is so beautiful. First time I've ever seen one walk like that for so long. He's making a statement ( Nothing is going to keep me down I'm going to stand tall) And he sure is doing that. Awesome job buddy. ❤
Incredible
This story made me so happy. So inspiring! I just want to give dexter a hug :)
Omg how precious 🥺🥺🥺
Best thing ive seeen in a long time
Thank you for sharing this.
This dog was just like, “Handicap? That’s okay, I don’t have hands- I got paws. And I only need two.”
This is very painful, the brave dog has mastered the art of living🙏🙏 may God give him strength for the rest of his life🙏🙏
I'm so overwhelmed with emotion and crying what' a beautiful story when people were cheering him that was it I was a crying mess
Amazing dog. What a warrior
Amazing dog!
So beautiful🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️
and so begins the era of the dogfluencers
My dog just had his right front leg amputated today. This is so inspirational🙏🏽💜🙏🏽
Imagine if we treated other humans with this kind of nurturing and positivity. This has to be some type of mass mental illness.
Oh ,so cute
Aww Dexter. 😍❤ This is so inspiring. Never let any obstacle get in your way of enjoying life.
Dogs are really the best people. Dogs and kids. The rest of humanity can take a hike.
Kids often suck... It's just dogs.
just imagine breaking into a house and seeing this dog running towards you barking while upright...xD
I'd probably be so blown away that I would be rummaging for treats when the cops pulled up 😅
God, this is remarkable!
This is such a joy to see.
Dexter🙌🏻Dexter🙌🏻 he was probably wondering why his person strapped that uncomfortable contraption to him⁉️ just shows you that all souls can adapt to anything💯
YES DEXTER!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!
What an awesome story!!
Thank for the tears
I have a Yorkie that walks on his hind legs practically all the time, but he has all four legs!
Ouray and Silverton are my favorite places on Earth, now I like it a little more.
So sweet.
This is so beautiful
I'm watching a dog that adapted to walk on two legs while on another segment they show how a group of villagers adapted to walk on all fours. We sometimes forget just how incredible life is and how its full of surprises.
Amazing story n amazing dog!!
BIG SHOUT-OUT TO DEXTER ❤️❤️❤️💪🏾👍🏽
Absolutely awesome!
Nice, never give up 👍
They say humans evolved to the extent they did because, unlike other mammals, they started to stand upright and use their hands. Can't wait to see Dexter's descendants thousands of years from now.
That's absurd. There's not just one missing link, there are about a million. While some animals are a bit smarter than others, they're all on a similar plane. Humans are so far above even the most intelligent animal that evolution cannot possibly explain the disparity. Nor can evolution explain why man is the only "animal" that commits evil.
Sooooo sweet
A touching and inspiring story. Dogs are sentient beings and our family members. All my live to Dexter and his family!
It is extremely painful for a dog to walk like this
I was thinking about this, too. And I wonder if he was in pain already and the nerves at just damaged and he can’t feel it?
Only the dog knows.
Or perhaps he’s ignoring the pain and just wanting to please his owner, as many pets do?
I’m happy the dog is inspiring others but I don’t see the dog doing this for long as it isn’t natural for him. But we shall never know.
I don’t think I’d have the dog walk in a parade on the hot pavement if I owned him and I would not make him an internet viral sensation either. But that’s just me not wanting to exploit my pet.
He taught himself how to walk like that. If he was in pain, he wouldn’t be doing it
@@Mooms Not true,he IS in pain doing it as it causes severe pain on his joints
@@Mooms He will be in pain regardless,far too much pressure om hips and knee joints
Great story. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏼
How precious is this ? He is a hero!!!!!!
This is how humans started walking upright, too. 3 million years ago one of our ancestors was hit by a dinosaur driving a Flintstones car.
That's one cool dog.
That's a real hoot and just has to bring a smile to the face ;-)
A true inspiration. ❤
So much to learn from Dexter. Such a lovely and inspiring dog
Dexter is so adorable. What an inspiration.!!!!
Truly wonderful. He’s an angel. Treasure him.
