My story

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

Hear what Bailey's foster has to say about her!

"Bailey is the sweetest low/mid-energy girl who must forget that she’s over 60lbs because she thinks she’s a lap dog! She’s a great companion for someone looking for a chill, loving, cuddly dog. She’s totally potty-trained and can go hours on her own without an accident. She lets you know when she needs to go out and will get more pushy the longer you wait! She’s crate-trained as well, but definitely prefers to keep your bed or couch warm while you’re away. She walks great on a leash but can get a little distracted by squirrels and rabbits. She knows sit, shake, and is working on lay down."

Updated 12/22/24: "Bailey is a people lover who hasn’t met a stranger yet. Her interests include looking for bunnies & squirrels, sleeping on your pillows, taking up the whole bed, getting pets/attention, and lots of snuggles. Her dislikes include other dogs who bark at her when she’s on her leash, walking in the rain, and when you stop petting her (to which she will paw at your hands, face, etc., watch out😂)! Baileys personality is too cute, she’s an independent girl who can handle being on her own for hours at a time but also LOVES to be right on top of you any chance she gets. She has bursts of energy and is able to run short distances, but I would say she’s mostly a chill dog who spends most of her time relaxing on the couch or bed. When she’s excited she will bring you a toy or one of your extra shoes if it’s laying around, but she hasn’t chewed any shoes or anything else since being with me. She is a generally quiet dog, who doesn’t bark much throughout the day unless she hears something outside that needs to be investigated. She did well around a 3 year old girl while with me, having boundaries and not being too pushy. Her little white freckles on her face make it impossible not to love her!"
