My story

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

PLEASE HELP ME TO NOT HAVE TO SURRENDER BAXTER. He is not a puppy and will be hard to adopt out from a shelter.
Baxter is good boy, he needs a lot of attention, proper grooming and vaccinations. He is a great protector of children and will guard them with his life. He may seem aggressive at first but as soon as he is introduced ( especially with treats ) he is the sweetest most cuddly affectionate dog you'll ever meet. He is also less prone to acting out around strangers when he has had plenty of exercise and attention. I should have surrendered him a long time ago as he deserves so.muvh more than my family can give at this time. My son is extremely attached to him so if we could still get updates on him that would mean so much to my little boy. Please consider adding Baxter to your family. To add, he has made friends with other dogs and is capable of doing so. He doesn't do well with unfamiliar dogs but he learns fast and can be trained.
