Did you hear that Baxter???? DARLING!!! D.A.R.L.I.N.G! And then we have ADORABLE! We have MELTING HEARTS!!! And we have PUPPY FACE!!!!
Yes indeed Baxter, you are all of those and more! I want to add sooooo SMOOCHABLE!!! 😘Probably very spoiled and you known it goes in there somewhere too😎
Rocky must have told Baxter about his chair. Clearly Baxter was well versed into how to melt right into it.🤗

Paula and Warrior Angel Nitro
Nitro 11 1/2 yr old Doberman; right front amp June 2014. Had 6 doses carboplatin, followed by metronomic therapy. Rocked it on 3 legs for over 3 years! My Warrior beat cancer, but couldn't beat old age. He crossed the Bridge peacefully on July 25, 2017, with dignity and on his terms. Follow his blog entitled "Doberman's journey"
"Be good, mama loves you".....run free my beautiful Warrior
Love the picture of Baxter in Rocky's chair.

I am soooo late to this pawty, but I'm glad Michelle chimed in or I would have missed TOTALLY ADORABLE CUTENESS!
Baxter you keep snoozing in Rocky's chair and soaking up all that love, you found paradise on earth my friend!

Sorry I'm late with my reply, but Baxter says "woof woof" which I think roughly translates to "thanks for the birthday wishes and cards!"
David and Rocky (and Baxter now too!)
Rocky had his right front leg amputated on Valentine's Day 2017 after being diagnosed with osteosarcoma.
He joined the September Saints on September 3, 2017.
He is the toughest, bravest, sweetest and best friend I'll ever know.
that's funny - Rocky's banner came up as I clicked in too!
Somebody's keeping an eye on someone!

OMD David!!! Rocky looks like... "as long as you stay right where you are Santa, I won't eat you for dinner!"
Definitely not as amused.. but it really is funny

Hahaha!!! Great comparison of polar opposite reactions!!!🤣😂
Yeah, Rocky doesn't want anything to do with that Santa Claus, except, as Jackie said, maybe as an entree on his dinner plate!
Now, speaking of "that" Santa Claus, Baxter's Santa Claus is certainly more engaged! His body language is a lot more welcoming to Baxter than Rocky's Santa Claus!! Then again, Rocky's body language isn't exactly welcoming either!!!
I think Baxter's Santa had a much more believable beard. I think Rocky knew his Santa was fake. Smear boy!
Such great photos on so many levels😊

Yeah, Santa with Rocky is like "I'm ready to go home" and Rocky is like "Take your picture, because this is as close as I'm getting to this guy." Baxter's Santa is definitely having a better time.
I never even noticed the beards. Yeah, Baxter's was more legit. Rocky knew his was a fake.

Just got home from the emergency vet a little while ago. Baxter’s back issue flared up again. It was about a year ago when it first happened. So it’s looking like he may have some sort of disc disease.
I got him some Gabapentin and Carprofen at the ER but declined X-Rays. I’ll have his regular vet look at him later today and go from there. The nurse at the ER didn’t seem real optimistic, so hopefully we get better news later today.
