My name is Baxter!

I am looking to rehome my dog Baxter which is one of the hardest decisions I have ever had to make. He is a 4 year old mixed breed. We have had him since he was 3 months old. We got him from a rescue where we used to live in New Jersey. He is a very sweet boy who loves attention and definitely needs play and exercise. He LOVES other dogs. He can be nervous with strangers unless they have a dog, so I think it would be best for him to be in a home with another dog. The reason that we must find him a new home is due to my 2 year old son being allergic to pet dander. I have tried my best to work around it since we discovered my sons allergy, but I don’t feel that it is fair to my dog to be kept away from us so often. I can tell he is bored and lonely even though I’m trying my best to give him attention. Thinking of not having Baxter anymore breaks my heart, but I have to think about what is best for him and my son. He is a great dog and I want him to have a great life.
