Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


Bailey is a 7 year old, pure-bred Miniature Australian Shepherd (30lbs). My husband and I recently had a baby and we feel it is best to re-home her so she can be the center of her new owner's life.

Before having our baby, my husband and I loved hiking, camping, and playing fetch with Bailey. She is a great companion and listens very well! Bailey is the perfect size to cuddle on the couch or take with you to explore the outdoors. She is so sweet, soft and cuddly. She could play fetch with her tennis ball for hours.

This breed is known to bond to their owner and we feel Bailey has grown jealous of the baby. We have seen her growl at the baby and this has made us nervous for the future. We have tried encouraging interactions, but Bailey is not interested. We are grateful that she has kept her distance, but heart broken that it has come to this.

We know Bailey would be the best dog for someone without kids or other animals. She is a happy and healthy dog just looking love!
