Baxter

Before

Baxter before

Amongst the many messages we receive every day was Baxter’s picture. A broken white dog of an indeterminable breed and age tied to a post with sores all over his body. His back was bent and bowed. 

 

There are several theories about what happened to Baxter’s legs and back. Many say as a pup Baxter was bitten by a larger dog, and then passed from home to home after his injury. Though we were never able to corroborate any of this, we are so glad Baxter ended up with us.

Baxter after

Scared and broken, we realized Baxter was only a pup and terrified of what people could do to him. It took over a week for him to stop staring at the floor and even longer before we saw the tip of his tail wag for the first time. His skin healed gradually under treatment, he put on weight and his legs got stronger. He was neutered and vaccinated and is currently waiting to find a home that can offer him the love and care he deserves.
