Baxter. The heart of all of this.
01 Our name

Love, Baxter. With the comma.

Our name is written Love, Baxter, the way you would sign a letter. The comma is part of the name, in running text as well as in the logo. It is a sign-off from a dog who was deeply loved.

  • Correct: Love, Baxter
  • Not correct: Love Baxter, LoveBaxter, Love-Baxter, or the name in all capitals
  • Our web address is lovebaxter.com, lowercase, no comma.
  • The dog in our logo is Baxter, a Boston Terrier. He was a real dog, and the company is named for him.
02 Our story

Built after losing Baxter

Founder Adam Greenbaum rescued Baxter, a Boston Terrier, in 2012. Baxter was his constant shadow, following him from room to room and making ordinary days feel anchored. Baxter died on October 28, 2024.

Looking for help afterward meant late-night searches, scattered advice, and pages that made things feel worse. Even after years of working closely with veterinary clinics, Adam still felt unprepared when it was his turn to be the pet parent. So he built the place he had been looking for.

Love, Baxter is a free resource for pet parents facing the hardest parts of pet parenthood: an aging pet, end-of-life decisions, euthanasia, aftercare, and grief after a pet dies. It offers one of the largest libraries of guides on these subjects, written with input from veterinary professionals, a directory of vetted counselors, end-of-life specialists, and pet care providers, and a memorial store. In Baxter's honor, the One Million Trees Project plants a living memorial tree for every pet who was deeply loved.

The full story is on our About page. How we research, write, and review every guide is on our Editorial Process page.

03 Logos

The logo, and the Baxter mark

The full logo, the Love, Baxter wordmark with the Baxter mark, is our official logo. Please use it everywhere the logo appears. The Baxter mark on its own is our favicon and social avatar; use it alone only for an icon or avatar where the full logo would not fit. Each comes in four colourways.

Download all logos (zip, 0.9 MB)

Every file below is also in the zip, with a README of these rules. SVG is the one to use for web and print; AI is the Adobe Illustrator source; PNG is a transparent 864 px version for quick use.

04 Colours

Baxter's fur, Baxter's harness

Our two colours come from Baxter. The orange is the colour of his fur. The green is the colour of his harness. Green is the primary colour and carries the wordmark; orange is used sparingly, for Baxter and for accents. The lighter colours across the site are lighter versions of those two, with cream as the background and ink for text. On a green background, text and links are always white, never orange.
