BAXTER

Mixed Breed · Male

Baxter ✨ is a 10 out of 10 dog. Seriously. ✨ Yes, he is a large and positive dog with leishmaniosis. Maybe some of you will stop reading here. But if you continue, you will meet an extraordinary dog. Baxter is friendly, obedient, respectful and very affectionate. At the animal shelter he patiently waits in his cage for someone to come and caress him. When you look at him, his body melts: his tail starts moving with a joy that doesn't fit inside him. At home he behaves wonderfully. He knows how to be alone calmly, sleeps peacefully in his bed and adapts very quickly to the routine. He is a balanced and easy-to-live-with dog. During walks he might pull a bit at first or when he sees someone he wants to greet, but after a while he relaxes and walks calmly and attentively. What he clearly wants is to be the favorite of the house. He doesn't like sharing the home with other dogs: he can have friends outside, but his home is his home. However, he can perfectly coexist with children and we believe he can also live with cats. And leishmaniosis? It is completely controlled. He only needs one pill a day, with a very economical treatment. Baxter doesn't seek pity. He seeks a family that looks at him as he looks at the world: with excitement.

Però si continueu, coneixereu un gos extraordinari. El Baxter és sociable, obedient, respectuós i molt carinyós. Al refugi espera pacientment a la seva gàbia que algú s’acosti a fer-li carícies. Quan el mires, se li desfà el cos: la cua comença a moure’s amb una alegria que no li cap dins. A casa es comporta de meravella. Sap quedar-se sol tranquil·lament, dorm plàcid al seu llitet i s’adapta molt ràpidament a la rutina. És un gos equilibrat i fàcil de conviure. Als passejos pot tibar una mica a l’inici o quan veu algú a qui voldria saludar, però al cap de poc es relaxa i camina tranquil i atent. El que sí té clar és que vol ser el mimat de casa. No li agrada compartir llar amb altres gossos: pot tenir amics a fora, però casa seva és casa seva. En canvi, pot conviure perfectament amb nens i creiem que amb gats també. I la leishmània? Està totalment controlada. Només necessita una pastilla al dia, amb un tractament molt econòmic. El Baxter no busca compassió. Busca una família que el miri com ell mira el món: amb il·lusió.

About BAXTER

What life with BAXTER looks like

BAXTER is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at APAN — Protectora d in Spain.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇪🇸Adopting from Spain

Spanish protectoras generally include sterilization, all vaccinations, microchip ID, and EU pet passport in the adoption fee (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting BAXTER, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about BAXTER?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. APAN — Protectora d handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw BAXTER on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt BAXTER if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — APAN — Protectora d will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is BAXTER already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if BAXTER isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with APAN — Protectora d early rather than rehoming privately; they know BAXTER and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (CA). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
