Special adoption considerations: Baker is a truly Lucky Dog. Although he has tested positive for heartworms, treatment has been scheduled! Heartworm is not contagious to people or other pets, but results from mosquito bites. Heartworm, if left untreated, is life threatening, but after treatment, dogs that were heartworm positive should suffer no significant long-term effects so long as they are kept on a monthly heartworm preventative. Heartworm dogs can resume full active and normal lives, but need to be kept calm for 4-6 weeks after treatment. We are happy to talk more in depth about heartworm disease and treatment during the screening process.

Baker is Looking For: His forever home! Through no fault of his own, this sweet boy ended up in the shelter. He's looking ahead to his next chapter, one where he gets his own humans for long sniffy walks, romps in the park, and all the adventures they can dream up. Making lots of pup and people pals along the way are on his wish list, as well as quality kibble and a cushy dog bed.

But what he wants most of all is to know he's safe and loved and under his own roof always. In exchange, he promises lots of adoring gazes with those limpid spaniel eyes, fluffy tail wags - and loyal companionship for all his days.

What do you say? Is Baker the one for your home and your heart?
