Baker (formerly Toto)

Date Adopted: Fri, 11/13/2009

Breed: Terrier Mix

Why I chose this dog:

My friend in L.A. had 2 terrier mix dogs...now he has one (the other one, rescued in Mexico) left this world at a ripe old age..I love/d them! So sweet and loyal.
I was looking for about a year, for a similar mutt terrier and saw Baker on Petfinders.com. I sent in my application and Angela (foster mom) responded right away. We went to meet Baker, and he was so sweet! Living with multiple (large) dogs at his foster home, Baker was so well adjusted.
It's been about a month, and I still can't believe how sweet he is! I have a cat, who was used to having fellow cat brothers and sisters...he loved them, but since they passed, I wanted to get him a friend. Baker is great. Keeps Sharky (my cat baby) very entertained. We move around the house like a pack...when I get-up to go to another room, they both follow!
I can't imagine that Baker was ever at a shelter or worse, left on his own to wander the streets of Bakersfiled (where he was saved!)

I named him Baker, to honor his 'roots', but now, his nickname is Shake and Bake, since he just shakes with joy when he meets guests, or has a toy he wants to share- especially with Sharky.
