This is so touching. Baxter is a 19.5-year-old therapy dog, who can no longer walk, who gives comfort to patients at the end of their lives. He snuggles up to them, kisses them, and just provides a comfort that these people need.

There's only one word for Baxter: BEAUTIFUL.

Get some tissues before you click on the link. You're going to need them.

What a wonderful story, DandJ. Thank you.
I couldn't believe that bearface Baxter dog was 19½. I hope he wasn't in pain.

Hilarious! I'll get Artie to paw-print mine -- I'll call it a bootleg. Or a pawleg.
