Rest in Peace, Baggins <3

Baggins was our families beautiful collie dog. Known for his sweet nature, he was Annie’s best friend for 14 years, always great around kids and other animals, he was her “heart dog” and will be dearly missed by everyone here at Baystone. He has a place in all of our hearts, I’m sure some of our guests will remember him too.
