Baxter's Story

Meet Baxter — Your Snow‑Loving, Cuddle‑Ready Pup<br/><br/>Baxter here! I’m about 4–5 months old, around 30 pounds, and made of equal parts cute, cuddly, and curious. I adore playing with other dogs and I’m learning all about this big world one adventure at a time.<br/><br/>At first, I wasn’t too sure about that strange white stuff on the ground… but now I LOVE it — especially when it’s rolled into a ball I can proudly carry around (and maybe sneak a nibble of).<br/><br/>I’m still working on a few puppy skills like leash walking and hopping into cars, but I’m eager to learn and getting better every day. I’m crate trained, and my potty training is coming along great — accidents in my crate are getting rarer and rarer.<br/><br/>I’d be happiest with a big yard, a playful dog friend, and a loving family who’s excited to help me grow into the amazing dog I’m meant to be. I’m all puppy heart and puppy joy, ready to learn, explore, and love with my whole wiggly body.<br/><br/>Think I might be your new best friend…? <br/>Apply today and come meet me — I can’t wait to say hi!
