Success Story- PUDGY


Pudgy is a little five year old black pug. His owner passed away
suddenly and the family came to us to find a home for him.
Luckily we were able to find a home with two very loving
parents and a little lonely Puggle named Pugsly. When
Pudgie and Pugsly met it was love at first sight.
The family of Pudgie said he had not smiled in a long
time, and now he wrestles with Pugsly and smiles
all the time!

Millie Jo happy in her Wisconsin home



Millie Jo found a home in Wisconsin with Jill and Marty! They love her so much, and everyone thinks
Millie is the perfect dog. Millie is the perfect family dog, and everyone loves to pass her around and
she sleeps on their laps. Millie's two best friends are cats, and they actually all play together. She
is getting used to the snow, though, and has a warm jacket and little boots!
Millie Jo is a little ten month old Petite Brussels Griffon.
She was rescued from a Shelter and was classified as unadoptable
because she had an umbilical hernia.
We had it repaired when we had her spayed and she
is running around and playing right now. Millie Jo is
teeny but a force of nature!
She is currently in a foster home (and they might adopt her)
but please email us at Baxterandfriends@yahoo.com if
you are interested!

Cocker Reunion PARTY



In May we had a Reunion of the "Royal Seven", and four Cocker and their owners attended.
They were part of a group of seven Cocker Spaniels that were found together in an Industrial
area of Commerce, California. We had a great time and all the dogs and owners were happy
to meet each other and the dogs were happy to be reunited!

Here is how it happened. In August of 2008, I decided to quit rescuing. As you know, rescue is
a difficult endeavor. It is expensive, exhausting, and almost impossible at times. So I decided
that I was quitting rescue for good. But wouldn't you know it, the next day I got a call from
someone who had found a family of SEVEN adult Cocker Spaniels running around. They
asked if I could help. I knew right then that unless I said yes, the Cockers would all go
to the Shelter, so I said yes. I named them all after the Royal Family. Queen Elizabeth,
Princess Anne, Princess Diana, Prince Harry, Prince Charlie, Prince William and King George.

The attendees in the photo, from left to right, are; Suzanne and Prince William, Marta and
Ava (Princess Diana), Olivia and Esther (Queen Elizabeth) and Chuck and Ruthie (Princess Anne)

Everyone had a great time and next fall I hope to get the whole gang together!

Priscilla found a wonderful home!(ADOPTED)



Meet Priscilla, a one year old Malti-poo. Priscilla is spayed
and up to date on her shots. Sadly, she was turned in to the
Shelter by an owner who did not want to comply with the
new Spay/neuter laws. The owner preferred to give Priscilla
to the Shelter rather than spay her.

We are sorry that this picture was taken when her hair was
matted, but we can't groom her until her spay stitches
have healed. Then we will publish updated "after" photos
when she gas a new haircut.

Priscilla is very very gentle and friendly. All she wants
to do is to give kisses. Priscilla will follow you everywhere.
She is a tiny little dog, and weighs about 8 pounds. She
would be a perfect little lap dog, and you can carry her
around with you.

Priscilla likes other dogs and gets along with everyone.
She would do best in a home with other small dogs and older
kids. Because of her small size and delicacy, we would prefer
that she is with older children who are gentle with little
dogs.

She is exceptionally sweet. If you are interrested in Priscilla,
please email Sue at BaxterandFriends@yahoo.com, and we will
email you and application for her.
