Likes:
having his belly rubbed, racing around like the speed of lightening in the backyard, succeeding at getting up on the bed in the middle of the night and sidling up to anyone and everyone that will pet him

Pet-Peeves:
not a fan of the dog park or loud noises or pushy dogs

Favorite Toy:
a kong and squeaky tennis balls that don't seem to stick around for very long after Baxter gets done with them.

Favorite Food:
he'll eat just about anything (of course he only gets the best!) but he's got a very sensitive tummy so not very many people treats :(

Favorite Walk:
anywhere with me

Best Tricks:
crossing NYC streets w/out a leash

Arrival Story:
Found Baxter on petfinder.com looking for a basset griffon vendeen just for fun. He had a double listing in Tennesse and upstate NY. After calling found out he was being shipped from a kill pound down South to the one in NY. I called but they wouldn't return my call so we took a chance and drove way the heck upstate (near Lake George!) in a snowstorm and took him home!

Bio:
it's been fun to see Baxter get more and more confident as he was a very submissive dog when we found him. He is a complete joy to be around! A real mush.

Forums Motto:
I can't get enuf lovin'
