Baxter is a HW- (yeah!).  He is an 8 years young red head that was brought to the SPCA by his family who could no longer care for him. He was brought with his 11-year-old lab brother who was terminally ill, and seems to enjoy having a friend around. Some of his favorite things so far are shadowing my son, chasing the tennis ball, long walks, and getting brushed. He is a gem and with such personality still has many great years ahead to make someone very happy!

He likes to sneak a little lick to your hand just to let you know he’s there, but he won’t insist on constant attention.
