MEET BAXTER

---

When we imagine the life of a senior dog; it would look like several cozy places to lay, the finest foods and meds to help support an aging body, daily walks, car rides to your favorite places and endless amounts of love; like a lot of love.  Unfortunately for Baxter, at 9 years old, he found himself in an overcrowded shelter, on a concrete floor and with an injury and skin/coat issues.  We were absolutely crushed when we learned that the only way for Baxter to walk out of the shelter alive is if he had a rescue to back him.  Not only did our rescue back him; we promised him the life he has always deserved!  

Baxter has been an amazing dog to rehab.  His wounds have healed, his skin and coat are soft and shiny, and he has put on healthy weight! We have learned that Baxter’s love language is food and for that reason feel that a home with no children or older children 16+ would be best.  Baxter is very tall and strong and would prefer a family that is not intimidated by that because underneath that big body is one of the sweetest hearts you will ever meet.  He really enjoys being around his people, rides great in the car, walks well on a leash and is a social butterfly.  Baxter hasn’t spent too much time around other dogs in our care but from what we have seen, he would do well as the only dog or with other dogs that do not want to play or jump on him.  He enjoys keeping to himself and playing with his favorite toys! 

We hope you are ready to meet this gentle giant and give him what he most deserves...A HOME!  Baxter’s adoption fee includes his completed veterinary exams, vaccines, microchip and neuter.  Apply today to meet his handsome man! 

Adoption fee: $250
