Seven-year-old Wexler the Welsh Terrier of Carpinteria stays active with his favorite activity – showing off tricks on his family’s backyard rope zip line. His owner, Lois Mitchell, said Wexler is a “strong, independent character” with a commanding bark, who always guards his territory from package deliveries. “Wex also has a snuggly side and constantly entertains his family. He is named in honor of mid-century architect Donald Wexler, and lives in a preserved 1957 Carpinteria residence,” Mitchell told CVN.
