Paxton

Breed: Labrador Retriever

Barking from: Victoria

What's up dog?

Paxton was bought from a rescue shelter In October 2023 since then he has changed my kids and my life for the better. He is always happy to see us wagging his tail when we walk in the door, jumping up to greet us. He has learnt so many tricks is very smart and has bonded so well in our family. He sleeps inside with us every night and is by my feet all day when I'm home. He looks after the kids when I'm at work. A perfect guard dog and the best dog on the planet. He is awesome at catching the ball, understands many commands and is very protective of us. We can not imagine life without him. Every car ride he comes being a great passenger. He is my shadow and saviour when we are lonely. Paxton adores my kids and will sleep and cuddle them. He will sit on our lap for pats and sits on our feet so we can't leave him .
