My name is Baxter and I am very sweet and lovable. I am good. I don’t mess in the house; I don’t chew on things. I’m good with other dogs, but I am fearful. I have been abused and mistreated, and so there is a lot in life that scares me. I am looking for someone who will be patient with me and quiet and kind. In return, I will be loyal to you and love you. But I do need time to get used to new situations. Can you help me? Can you help me find my forever home? Love, Baxter🐾💕
