Baxter von Bloom is an adorable 12 month old German Shepherd mix on the smaller side who rolls over for belly rubs as soon as someone approaches his kennel. His lovey-dovey personality is mixed with just the right amount of energy to make him a playful yet calm friend. When a teenager visited with him recently, Baxter laid next to him, put his head on his lap and looked at him with adoring eyes. Baxter shows good manners when he meets other dogs and is just "one of the guys" on a group walk with 5 canine friends. In a doggie playgroup he shows great tolerance towards other less-mannerly participants. He's an all-round guy who will blend into just about any family.
