My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Baxter is a gorgeous AKC registered Saint Bernard that came to us several years ago and was adopted by one of our past adopters, whose Saint had recently passed away. Like many Saint owners, they realized a home is never the same once you’ve had a Saint, without a Saint. Unfortunately, due to family issues they are no longer able to keep Baxter. As always, St. Cloud’s Rescue takes back our dogs and provides care, attention, and love to them. As you can see from his picture, Baxter is a very large boy at approximately 180 pounds. He is on a new weight control diet, and our goal is to lose 30 pounds each, together. It will be interesting to see if he or I lose weight quicker. Baxter is house trained, a joy to be around, however, we have not introduced him to any of our dogs yet, mainly because I cannot hold him to try an introduction. That will be forthcoming when I have a very strong person to assist me. We believe Baxter to be around 6 years old. He has no medical issues that we know of. Baxter is current on all vaccinations, neutered and heart worm negative. He needs a good grooming, but we can not lift him into our bathtub, so he will be getting an outside bath, again when I have someone to assist me. He is loving big boy and just a sweetheart. Baxter must be the only dog.

In concern for families with small children, we will not adopt a dog to a home with any child under the age of 5. This is due to the large size of Saint Bernards and the safety of your children. Our Saint Bernards are not aggressive or mean in any way, they can just knock down children easily. If you would like to visit our pups please contact St. Cloud's Rescue at www.stcloudsrescue.org or call 972-679-5319. The first step in adopting from St. Cloud's Rescue is to complete an application. The application may be found OUR WEBSITE at www.stcloudsrescue.org. Please click on the application process, complete and then email it. Once the application has been sent please call us to confirm that we have received it. St.Cloud's Rescue maintains the right to deny applications to anyone for any reason we see fit. St. Cloud Rescue is a non-profit 501-c-3 organization. St. Clouds Rescue requires new owners to purchase a one year supply of heartworm preventative from us, which is at cost. We require a home visit prior to all placements. All our dogs must be microchipped at a cost of $20.00. There is a $300.00 donation fee. All dogs adopted through St Clouds Rescue must be indoors. St. Bernards cannot tolerate the Texas heat.
