My personality

My story

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

Hello everyone. My name is Baxter. My sister's name is Catarina, aka Cat and Rosie. Cat is my mom's color, and I and Rosie are the color of my dad. My momma was a Lab mix, and my daddy was a Boxer. I came to the rescue of being the sweet, crazy boy you see right now with a bit of a reserved personality until I decided all was good. I love people, children, dogs/ puppies, and cats/kittens. Primarily, housebroken, leash trained, doggy door trained, crate trained. I have those boxer-long legs. I would love to be a running buddy, go camping and hiking, do yard work, or do anything with you. When the sunlight hits my coat, the fawn color, like my dad's, shines a deep fawn red. Please fill out an application and submit a deposit to begin my journey home to you. Cat aka

More about this rescue

My name is Carla Carlton. We (my husband and I) are retired militay. He served in the Air Force for 25 years. We have always done comunity service. So, when we got ready to retire, we found a place we wanted to live and bought a home. Well, the town we lived in has/had a high kill shelter. This broke our hearts.
Around this same time, I met a lady who fostered for Friends of Homeless Animals, RI. One day I got a call from FOHA there was a poodle in our shelter and he was on the short list. I went and pulled him. Roie (FOHA), helped set me up to foster and list our orphans to adopt with families who really wanted them. I am not sure how long ago it was, 16-18 years, I think. The rest is history. Through them and Mountain Pet Rescue, CO (and a few others in CO, UT, IA, IL, OR, CA, MS...), we have placed over 2500 dogs/ puppies and cats.
