Dexter had a rough life all the way from newborn pup to young adult. When he could no longer take the stress of his family pack, he decided to venture on to find a new group better off than his own—traveling on his own for a few years until eventually stumbling on the territory of the Zygopterans and being greeted with friendliness and understanding, and a warm place to rest and call home. He still has not quite found his place in the pack, and tends to be quite awkward around the others—especially due to his older age and hardships—but maybe that will change someday.
