About Baxter DL1873
Hey lovely peeps! My name is Baxter and I’m probably the friendliest puppy you’ll ever meet.
I adore all humans and doggies... and in turn, they all fall in love with me! I’ve heard there are little animals called cats but I don’t think I’ve ever met one.
I’m a bit unique as I have an under-bite which gives me a constant quizzical look which I’m told is pretty adorable. My hips may need an operation some time in the future if they give me grief. This doesn’t stop me from being active at all though!
I currently live with a girl doggy and love having her for company. My favourite things are playing tug of war with her, going for walkies, food, and cuddling on the couch with my humans getting lots of belly rubs. If I could I would have my belly rubbed forever!
A smart boy, I am house trained and know basic commands like sit, stay, bedtime, and I’m getting better at ‘come’, especially if there are treats! I love my humans so much I don’t really like when they leave me. Hopefully my new humans will be home more often and can continue teaching me it’s ok to be alone.
Are you my dream family? If you’d like to meet me, please get in touch by email: DFLadoption@gmail.com
Medical notes
As Baxter's x-rays show dysplasia of the left hip, he may need surgery in the future if his symptoms continue.

If a dog is listed as "Foster Carer Needed", they are looking for a temporary home in Perth metro while their vet work is completed and while they wait for their forever home. They may also be fostered with the view to adoption. Please email us for more information.
