My story

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

Meet your new best friend, Baxter! 🐶✨
This sweet, snuggly boy is a Chihuahua/Spaniel mix and the full package — gentle, affectionate, and amazing with kids, dogs, and even cats. He’s fully potty-trained, walks beautifully on a leash, and has the perfect medium-energy vibe: playful when you want, calm when you need.

He’s also incredibly independent for his age! He naps in his crate for several hours a day and is already comfortable being on his own for 2–3 hours without a fuss. Plus, he hardly sheds! 🙌

He’s working on not doing the “protective bark” at strangers or dogs on walks, and he’s already made great progress.

If you’re looking for a loving, easygoing pup who brings warmth, joy, and cuddles into any home… he’s your guy. 💛🐾

Additional adoption info

https://www.wishbonela.org/adopt

To initiate the adoption process, all prospective adopters must be at least 21 years old. Please ensure you have a valid government-issued ID readily available. Adoption fees vary, with a rate of $500 for dogs over six months and $700 for those six months and under (Seniors: $350) . Our dogs are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, and ready to join your home once we find the perfect match.



Our dogs can be found in foster homes. We do not hold dogs for any reason, and availability is not guaranteed.



If you rent your residence, be prepared to provide proof of your pet policy. Please note that current dogs in your home should be altered, unless there's a medical condition preventing surgery. Thank you for considering adoption from us!

Go meet their pets

Once your application undergoes assessment, expect to receive an email from our adoptions team. If compatibility is evident, we'll coordinate an interview and arrange a meet-and-greet session with the adoptable pup.
