About Baby

Baby is a 14-year-old Rottweiler mix who’s spent more time waiting for a home than anyone else at the rescue. Once left behind by a backyard breeder, he’s learned to trust thanks to the steady kindness of volunteers and trainers. Baby isn’t the type to crave close cuddles or couch time, but he brings his own warmth and friendliness wherever he goes. He’s looking for an adult-only home where he can feel secure. Baby prefers long walks, sunbathing, and occasionally taking a dip in the tub—he really comes alive around water. Treats are the highlight of his day; he’ll spin in happy circles when he knows snacks are coming. Joint supplements help keep him comfortable as he enjoys his senior years. What he needs most is someone patient who respects his boundaries and appreciates the loyalty of a grown-up companion. Let Baby show you how rewarding it is to adopt a senior with spirit and heart.
