Bailey-Sue is a 4-year-old, 57lb spayed female pittie mix who is as playful and affectionate as she is brave. She was rescued from the Houston shelter after enduring physical abuse, and though it took months for her to trust again, her resilience and gentle spirit now shine through. She's a beautiful girl who simply needs a patient, loving home willing to let her open up at her own pace. Once she feels safe, she's pure love!
Ideal Home
Bailey-sue adores children and has lived happily with kids ranging from 3 to 17 years old. She enjoys playing with other dogs and may do particularly well with a calm male dog around 30-80 lbs who can match her energy and help her feel confident. Slow introductions are key to her success. She needs a home that understands she may take time to feel safe and confident, and that her cautious reactions to new people or dogs are rooted in fear, not aggression.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned.
Training & Support
Bailey-Sue is fully house-trained and crate-trained. She walks nicely on a leash once she's had a chance to burn off some energy. Continued leash work will help her be her best self when heading out full of excitement. She can be cautious and unsure around new people or dogs, but with love, patience, and structure, she blossoms into a loyal, trusting companion.
