My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Baxter weighs 37#, has a very sweet personality, and is well-behaved. Baxter is good with children, including infants. Very quiet; only barks if someone comes to the door. (Not bothered at all when neighbors visit or play right outside my window or walk past the door.) He is crate-trained, housebroken, and well behaved. He is used to being in his crate for 10 hours/day while previous owners were at work. He walks very nicely on a loose leash. Baxter loves going for walks, car rides, and especially being with people. He can do well in an apartment (as he is now) because he doesn't bark and ignores irrelevant sounds. He has food sensitivities and seasonal allergies (Spring and Fall), so it's important to make any dietary changes very slowly. He is up for adoption through no fault of his own. He belonged to my son for 5 years, but then a baby came along who was always sick and they found out he was allergic to the dog. So I adopted the dog but discovered that I too am allergic to dogs.
