All About Baxter

 

Like most doodles, Baxter (8.5 month) loves to eat, sleep, play, and say hi to just about everyone he encounters. He loves going on adventures, trying new things, and making new dog friends.

He is an avid besito giver, a big fan of "snack water," especially in the Texas heat, and an even bigger fan of "small humans," and oh-- he can talk!  

Baxter started using Fluent Pet buttons to communicate when he was just 3 months old. Like many AIC (augmentative interspecies communication) button users, I imagined I'd teach him words like "outside, play, potty, and food" to better address his basic needs, but 1 month in and 32 buttons later, I knew it would be so much more than that. 

Over the last 6 months, it has been so fun to see Baxter's personality develop and witness all the hilarious, beautiful, caring, emphatic, and mind-blowing moments we've shared and in turn have been able to share with you. He now has over 75 buttons and counting!

Having a talking puppy is truly like having a toddler. Some days are exhausting, other moments, slightly embarrassing, and yet others exciting. But whatever they may be, I wouldn't have it any other way.
