Quick Bio:

-purebred

Birthday:
June 17th 2001

Likes:
Playing with all his toys - but mostly the ball. Playing or bothering his sister Daisy. Food time.

Pet-Peeves:
Having to go to bed at night, when all he wants to do is play. Getting his teeth brushed.

Favorite Toy:
He loves all toys, but goes through a cycle where every week he picks a new favorite toy. His favorite game is to play fetch.

Favorite Food:
Dog goodies, Frosty Paws, and ice cubes (he isn't allowed to eat human food - but thinks he is getting away with getting some human food with the ice).

Favorite Walk:
Anywhere outside with his sister Daisy. But Baxter can be a little lazy and when he gets tired he'll just plop down in the grass (and a few times in the street). He also loves going to the dog park.

Best Tricks:
Baxter doesn't have many tricks (unless he is trying to get your attention for a lap). We still can't get him to catch a ball...

Arrival Story:
We purchased Baxter as a companion for our other dog Daisy (though both my husband and I wanted another dog). We knew that we wanted a male Boston Terrier - and he was the boy that we bonded with out of his litter mates. He was such an adorable little puppy (and he still is). Daisy was a little curious when we first brought him home, but after the first day Daisy loved him as much as we did.

Bio:
Baxter is the best. He is such a funny little boy - his personality is tremendous. He is all about playing (he even wears Daisy out). His favorite game is to play fetch - though whatever it is has to land on the ground first before he picks it up. He will bring any toy and drop it in your hand or at your feet and just stare at you until you throw it for him - if you try to ignore him, he will just paw and wine at you until you give in. Baxter is a big people person -- I don't think he would be happy if he could not be around people (he is like our little shadow). His sister, Daisy, loves people too - but she also enjoys her alone time. Baxter on the other hand does not want any alone time. He wants to be around people all the time (preferably adults - kids tend to stress him out). We are the luckiest people to have our wonderful dogs in our lives (though I feel that anyone who has dogs, or cats, are very fortunate to have their animals in their lives). Baxter passed away the morning of March 5, 2010. He was diagnosed with a large tumor on his heart in January. He was the best little boy ever, and is greatly missed.
