Meet Baxter, a gorgeous young red Kelpie with a goofy little face and an even goofier personality! This sweet, playful boy is looking for an active family who love adventures as much as he does. Baxter can be a little shy when first meeting new people, but once he's comfortable, his fun-loving personality really shines through. He's a clever young lad with plenty of potential and would love a family keen to teach him new things, explore the great outdoors and enjoy plenty of fun together. With a little patience, positive guidance and lots of love, Baxter is sure to blossom into a wonderful adventure buddy and much-loved family member! Is Baxter right for your home?
