Bio: Paxton was adopted from the Tacoma Humane Society in January of 2002. Although he is extremely handsome and was listed on Petfinder, he was at the shelter for nearly 3 weeks before I adopted him. He was dirty and very skinny, with torn ligaments in his back knees and a rock in his stomach(I did not know these things of course). Four thousand dollars and some adjustment time later, the timid skinny dog has turned into a strapping, handsome, friendly boy. Paxton is one of the sweetest, gentlest dogs I have ever met. Many people claim to be in love with him. But to be in love with him, you would have to embrace all his quirks, and annoying habits: fence fighting, squirrel killing, leash aggression with other dogs, pacing, staring, general nervousness for no apparent reason, drooling at dinner time. Paxton, I know you so well. Paxton you are the balm of my heart. I love you.
