About

Meet Baxter

Baxter was found abandoned near the Ennis American Legion post in late October. His foster took him into their home for protection from the two nights of freezing temperatures expected. They took him to a vet in hopes a microchip might reunite him with his family. Good news is he was chipped!  Bad news is, when the vet reached his previous family, they declined to claim him. But that means a new start for this sweet guy! His fosters had him thoroughly examined, ensured his vaccinations were updated, and started Baxter on Heartguard and Nextguard. He is very sweet, estimated at about 2 years old, 63 lbs, neutered, apparently house trained, very friendly and smart. After two weeks of slow integration, he and his 3 foster sibling dogs share backyard playtime and get along fabulously. In just two weeks he is learning to walk gently on leash; has already learned “sit”; and “stop/sit/stay” at intersections on his walkies. He loves people and wants to spend time with both his human friends and canine buddies. He’s an active dog, and due to his size small children might be overwhelmed; and to continue his training he probably needs an experienced dog owner. If you feel your home might be the right place for this wonderful dog, the place to start is with the adoption application found at www.dfwrescueme.org/adopt.  Once submitted, the foster will contact you to tell you more, and to arrange a meeting! The adoption fee for all of our dogs is $250.00, which includes their vaccinations and spay/neuter. Baxter is participating in the DFW Rescue Me Guest Dog Program, so custody and ongoing care are provided by the foster, not by DFWRM.

An adoption application and home visit are required for adoption. Adoption fees are $200 for dogs and $250 for puppies.
