About Baxter
Meet Baxter! If you’re searching for a professional cuddle bug who's also a part-time comedian and a full-time people enthusiast, Baxter would love to be your new companion. This happy-go-lucky boy has a heart full of love. His favorite activity? Being wherever the people are, closely followed by getting pets from them. He has even perfected the art of casually leaning against you to encourage more attention! Baxter is not just a pretty face; he’s also potty trained, treat motivated, and a quick learner. He knows essential commands like sit, down, shake, and high five. Catching treats right out of the air is one of his specialties. He adores other dogs and plays well with everyone from energetic pals to puppies. Bathing in attention at daycare? He’s a fan! Baxter loves adventures too. He enjoys walks, jumping into the car, and joining in on the action. Though he pulls a little on leash, he’s been working on his walking manners. And a little heads up: sprinkler hoses are suspicious to him. Baxter is looking for an adult-only home or one with older, dog-savvy teens (16+). Young children aren't a good match for him; he thrives with calm people who understand dog body language. He's sensitive to grooming and vet handling, so he needs a patient family to advocate for him. Luckily, he believes snacks solve most issues, and he may just be onto something. Whether he’s your one-and-only or shares space with canine siblings, Baxter wants a family that will appreciate his goofy affection and let him snuggle up next to them. Soft, silly, and snuggly, Baxter is ready to become Your Personal Shadow™! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
