My story

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

🐾💛 MEET BAILEY! 💛🐾

Bailey is a 5-year-old, 56lbs, Basset Hound who is sweet, social, goofy, and very used to being adored 🐶✨
She’s been deeply loved her whole life, but due to her owners’ medical needs, she’s ready for a new family to share her heart (and her opinions 😉).

🏡 HOME SWEET HOME
Bailey does best with someone who works from home or is retired 🖥️☕
✔️ Excellent house manners
✔️ No crate needed
👑 Proudly rules the house as Queen Bailey

🎤🎶 VOCAL QUEEN ALERT
Bailey loves to “talk” and share her thoughts! Because of this, apartment life isn’t her thing 🚫🏢
🏠 A house is best — she prefers an audience who appreciates her performances 😄

🎾🐕 MORE ENERGY THAN YOUR AVERAGE BASSET
Bailey loves lounging 🛋️ but also enjoys:
✨ Toys & playtime
✨ Being in the middle of the action
👑 Prefers to be the only pet in the home so she can soak up all the attention — but she has happily attended doggie daycare with her previous family 🐾💬
👩‍🦰👨‍🦱 Best with adults or older teens

🩺💊 MEDICAL NOTE
Bailey does have allergies and requires daily Apoquel, which helps keep her comfortable and happy 🌼💛

💖 If you’re looking for a loyal, hilarious, affectionate companion with classic basset charm and a big personality, Bailey may be your girl 💛🐶

📩 If you’re looking for a loyal, funny companion with lots of basset charm, Bailey may be the perfect fit.

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

Submit an application online and we will do vet and personal references and reach out to you asap.

2.

Interview

After doing reference checks we will call you to answer any additional questions about the dog and see if it sounds like a match!

3.

Meet the Pet

Arrange a meeting between all family and existing pets and the new dog. This will most likely be done at your home for everyone's comfort.

4.

Sign Adoption Contract

If it is a good match for everyone, we require an adoption contract and the adoption fee at that time.

5.

Take the Pet Home

Set up a time for you to take home your new family member. And we are always here to help with that transition and any future questions.

Additional adoption info

Adoption donation required. This covers altering, 6 in 1 series vaccinations, rabies vaccination if over four months old, bordatella vaccination, deworming, heartworm testing (treatment if positive), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, grooming, full veterinary examination, and temperament evaluation.

All SOAR dogs go through a ten day quarantine period to insure they are healthy, before being put up for adoption. Though if the dog is an owner turn in and has been to a vet within the last ten days they go immediately up for adoption, with a further exam at the time of altering.
If for any reason the dog does not work out in your family we will take the dog back into our care at any time during the lifetime of the dog. (We require that the dog be returned to us, as per the contract).
