Bailey-Sue is a 4-year-old, 57lb spayed female pittie mix who is playful, affectionate, and brave. This sweet girl came to us after surviving physical abuse, and though it took months for her to trust again, her resilience and gentle spirit now shine through. She just needs a patient, loving home willing to let her open up at her own pace – once she does, she's pure love! Bailey adores kids and currently lives with children ranging from 3 to 17 years old. She's gentle, patient, and happiest when surrounded by her family. Bailey is fully house-trained and crate-trained, sleeping quietly through the night. She's never shown any food or toy guarding and has great manners! Her energy level is medium to medium-low; she loves playtime and activity but can also relax and enjoy a slower-paced home. Bailey is affectionate, smart, playful, and sometimes a little silly. She loves chew toys, car rides, and spending time with her people. Because of her past, Bailey needs a home that understands she may take time to feel safe and confident. With love, patience, and structure, Bailey blossoms into the loyal, trusting companion she was always meant to be.
Ideal Home
Bailey would thrive in a home that understands she may take time to feel safe and confident, as her past experiences have left her a bit cautious with new people and dogs. Her reactions are rooted in fear, not aggression, and with love and patience, she blossoms into a loyal and trusting companion. She absolutely adores kids and is gentle and patient with them. Bailey loves to play with other dogs but prefers slow introductions and has done best with dogs around 30-80 lbs, potentially excelling with a calm male dog who can match her energy.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions were mentioned in the description.
Training & Support
Bailey is fully house-trained and crate-trained. She walks nicely on a leash once she's had a chance to burn off some energy. If she heads out full of excitement, she might need a few reminders and continued leash work will help her be her best self.
