Story
Hi-
I’m Bailey, and I am a BIG beautiful baby! I have the sweetest eyes, beautiful soft ears, and extra long legs. Here are some things you should know about me:
Breed mix – Best guess is Great Dane, Hound, Pointer and/or possibly Great Pyrenees- a big mix!
Age – about 6 months – date of birth 5/9/24
Weight – last official weight was 45 lbs at the beginning of October. I am a skinny, lanky girl right now, but once I fill out, I am going to be a large to extra-large sized dog when full-grown.
Activity level – medium – I do have bursts of goofy, clumsy energy that make my foster family laugh. I love to wrestle with the other dogs in my home, but I also like to snuggle with my humans, or lounge around on a comfy bed or couch.
Things I like to do- I am a pretty chill girl during the day and hang out on my bed while my mom works. I am submissive with other dogs, but once I am comfortable I love to play with them. I like to sniff around in the back yard, and I like chewing on bones and sticks. I love food, and my food motivation will make it fun to work on training with me.
Kennel- I sleep quietly in the kennel all night (although I am an early riser) and I am kenneled periodically during the day. Sometimes I go into the kennel on my own to relax. I do bark at strangers in the home if I am kenneled while they are there – but I quiet down quickly
Potty Training- I am almost completely housebroken – you just need to pay attention to how much water I have been drinking
Things I am working on- My foster mom is showing me that the world is not a scary place, and that we can have fun adventures together. I was very nervous when I first got here, and new situations are still scary for me. My foster family takes me to a dog-friendly brewery, and I love meeting all the new people and dogs there. Now that I am used to the humans in my home, I love to be near them, and like to get pets and belly rubs from them. I am also learning that food on the counter does not belong to me -since I am very tall and have a hound’s nose, my adoptive family will need to make sure food is kept out of reach. I have made great progress in learning to sit nicely for pets and treats instead of asking for them by jumping.
Dogs- I am being fostered with two adult dogs, and I follow them everywhere and love to play with them. I would love another dog in my forever home, but it is not essential
Kids - Although I am very gentle and sweet, I am still working on not jumping on people. Because of my size, it is best that I go to family with older children
Cats- unknown
Walking- My leash manners need some work, but I have learned that walking on a leash is not scary, and I love my walks now. I rarely go potty on a leash, so it’s best that my forever family has a fenced yard, or has the patience to work with me on this
Other things you should know about me- Like most extra-large dogs, I am a messy drinker, and can be a heavy drooler, especially when I’m nervous or if someone has food they are not sharing with me. I am spayed, up to date on vaccinations and preventive care, and ready to find a forever family
