My story

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

About Bailey:
- Gentle temperament. Shy at first. Very affectionate with her people! Full of love!
- Low/Medium energy level
- Velcro dog who loves being with her person
- Super chill and loves to relax
- Fiend for treats
- Loves to play fetch (we call it “go gets!”)
- Knows “sit” & learning other basic cues
- Great on car rides
- Walks well on a leash
- Good w/ baths, nail clipping & teeth brushing
- Housebroken
- Crate trained
- Good w/ dogs
- Good w/ cats
- Good w/ kids (but doesn’t live with them)
- Valley Fever positive, takes meds well

Bailey’s ideal adopter:
- Patient & caring
- Committed to continuing her medical care: She has Valley Fever & will likely require lifelong medication. Her adopter should be her confident advocate and able to take her to the vet regularly to monitor her VF. Friends of PACC Clinic offers discounted veterinary care for PACC adopters.
- Comfortable giving medication or willing to learn: She takes pills and eyedrops daily with relative ease & of course a peanut butter treat afterward. Her foster will happily show you their routine!
- Will continue working w/ her on separation anxiety: She’s happiest with a human around, but gets a little nervous when left alone and will bark & pace. She takes daily Trazodone which has significantly reduced her stress level and helped her relax when home alone.
- Will continue socializing her: She’s a little shy meeting new people and pups, but has gained confidence with her foster mom by her side to let Bailey know she is safe. After meeting someone a couple of times she warms right up, approaching her friends (human or canine) with excited waggles!

More about Bailey:
Bailey’s gentle disposition and loving personality will melt your heart faster than a chocolate bar in the blazing desert sun! Everybody who’s had the pleasure of meeting her agrees that she is a real gem.

From her perpetual smile to her super-soft coat, Bailey is 100% a living teddy bear. A tag along friend who is equally stoked for a movie night in, playtime, or low key hangs with other human & canine friends. Like a true shadow dog she just wants to be included and is along for the ride.

Bailey’s vibe is low-key. She starts her day with a leisurely morning stroll, stopping along the way to say hello to her favorite neighbors. She spends the rest of the day rotating nap spots around the house; only taking breaks to say hello to he
