My story

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

Meet Baker, a 55-pound heart-stealer with a personality as sunny as his favorite spot on the grass. At just 2 years old, Baker isn't just a dog; he's a mature soul in a young body, a gentle companion who has perfected the art of snuggling and has become an indispensable member of his foster family, which includes two loving adults, two energetic teenagers, and a sweet St. Bernard named Delilah.



Baker's perfect day is simple yet filled with joy: a hearty breakfast (he's a food enthusiast, especially when it comes to meals served in enrichment toys), a playful roll on the grass soaking up the sun, a day filled with engaging toys, delicious dinners, and ending with heartwarming cuddles with his humans. His days are an ideal blend of outdoor adventures, fun tug games, and soaking in all the love and attention a dog could wish for.



What sets Baker apart is his remarkable intelligence and eagerness to learn. He's aced house training, mastering it with zero accidents, and he's even learned to use the doggy door to enjoy his beloved sunbathing sessions. Baker knows that the quickest way to his heart is through a tasty treat, making new introductions a breeze, especially when there's food involved. He enjoys the company of other dogs, valuing a gentle introduction to forge lasting friendships.



Baker's exemplary behavior has earned him the luxury of sleeping in the bedroom, a testament to his impeccable manners. He's a dream on the leash, exuding confidence especially when accompanied by his foster sister. Car rides? He's all in, making every trip, no matter how mundane, an adventure.



But that's not all - Baker's communicative, alerting his family to passersby or the doorbell with a bark, yet always responsive to cues like "TOUCH" to gently redirect his focus. His repertoire of commands is impressive, including SIT, TOUCH, DOWN, DROP IT, STAY, and many more, showcasing his love for learning and eagerness to please.



Baker dreams of a forever home where he can share his boundless love and joy. He imagines a home with a canine sibling, older children to play with, no cats, and a yard for his sunbathing and playtime. Despite the warmth and love of his foster family, Baker is ready for his next adventure, hoping to find a forever family that cherishes his affectionate nature, intelligence, and loyal companionship.



If Baker sounds like the perfect addition to your family, don't hesitate. He's been waiting patiently for his chance to shine in his forever home, ready to fill your days with laughter, love, and endless cuddles. Could you be the perfect match for this well-behaved, loving, and exceptionally trained companion? Fill out an application today and open your heart to Baker – your very own ray of sunshine.

More about this rescue

Sonoma's Haven Inc. 501(c)3 organization was founded in June 2015 after seeing the shortage of fosters that are able to take in rescue dogs needing a safe place to stay until they are adopted. This is a crucial part of the process and Sonoma’s Haven is here to help the rescues. Without space for a dog to go they are unable to intake the dog. Sometimes the situation is urgent and they cannot wait for a foster to step up or the dog might need help medically and emotionally before its ready to be in a home setting. Our organization creates a safe atmosphere for dogs to begin the process of healing and learning the joys of life. We finished our new facility in Sealy, Tx in June 2018. We were able to include a lounge area in our building design which allows dogs to enjoy some of the things usually only dogs in a home environment experience. The lounge includes super comfy couches for them to hang out on and decompress and just get some one on one attention from staff and volunteers. All of our staff members have a passion for caring for these dogs that stay with us. We get to be a stepping stone for these dogs as they learn how to trust humans again and enjoy what it is supposed to be like for a dog. We have a large fenced area that they get to run and play in. Understanding that the dogs here are searching for that perfect foster/forever home we like to capture photos and videos of the dogs to assist the rescues in their efforts to network the dogs.
