Meet Baxter, a loving and affectionate seven-year-old Staffordshire Bull Terrier from Boise, ID, whose heart is as big as his personality! This 35-pound bundle of joy may have some special needs, but he doesn’t let that stop him from spinning—literally—with excitement when he sees his favorite people. His happy twirls are guaranteed to bring a smile to your face!
Baxter is a devoted companion who thrives on human connection. He loves nothing more than cuddling up with his favorite person or running free in an open field, feeling the grass beneath his paws. He’s friendly with people and greets new friends with enthusiasm. However, due to his unique needs, he’s looking for a home where he can be the only dog—he prefers not to share his toys or space with other pups.
Born with a quirk that causes him to spin in circles, Baxter has depth perception challenges and is blind in one eye. This means he sometimes needs extra support on slick surfaces, and he may need to be carried over floors where he feels unsure. Despite this, he navigates the world with a happy, determined spirit and just a few simple accommodations.
Baxter knows basic commands like Come, Sit, and Lay Down, and he’s fully house-trained! He's also neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, making him ready to settle into his next home. Because of his size and occasional bursts of excitement, a home without very young children would be best. A fenced yard where he can run safely would be a dream come true for this sweet boy!
If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who will shower you with love (and maybe a few dizzying spins of happiness), Baxter could be the perfect match! Could you be the special person to give him his next home full of care and love? Reach out to learn more about bringing Baxter home!
