Baxter is a 9-year-old Boston Terrier in Birnamwood, WI, who needs $2,000 for a CT Scan, Diagnosis, and Treatment.

Baxter was born in Millbrook Alabama, August 18th 2012. we adopted him from a Craigslist ad and he's been with us ever since. we moved to Wisconsin when Baxter was about three because Alabama is too hot. part of the reason we chose the property we ended up with was based on the dogs, meaning we have about half an acre of fenced in property, flat, for them to enjoy.

since we are both disabled Baxter has literally never been alone a day in his life. his day starts out with a light breakfast with his daddy, depending on whether it's summer or winter here, either goes outside and plays or he's on the couch with his mama watching TV. in the afternoons most days it's in the car to pick up the mail and then he gets his, then he gets his toys and bones for the night

Baxters biggest and most unique characteristic is the fact that he is a talker, I posted a video of him yelling at me because he didn't get his cookies fast enough. most people when they hear them think he's a cat. his other trait is the elegant way he walks, he is a prancer. his favorite toys are the knee bones that you can buy from the store.

Baxter has a tumor in his head, his vet is kronenwetter veterinarian hospital, however Madison hospital has his records now because they're the only ones in the area that will perform a CT scan. at this point it looks like the Madison veterinary University hopefully will be removing his tumor I'm not sure yet. other than this he is completely healthy and normal.

I am a disabled veteran I make exactly $157.60 a month from the government. I have mental health challenges, including past suicide attempts. Baxter has been my rock for the last 10 years, his life may literally be my life.
