At three years old, this "lap dog" in a big-boy body is a staff and volunteer favorite who truly thrives on human connection. Whether he's sleeping in bed with you or leaning in for a good cuddle, Bailey is a professional-level velcro dog who just wants to be part of the family. He's already mastered the basics of home life, proving to be trustworthy with free-roam privileges; he doesn't chew, has no accidents, and will be waiting right by the front door to greet you with a wagging tail. While he is a dream indoors, Bailey is looking for an active, savvy handler who can keep up with his zest for life. He has a high-octane passion for hunting lizards and small critters, sometimes becoming so fixated that he forgets his manners. Because of his impressive vertical leap and his tendency to bolt out of open doors or dig toward a scent, he needs a secure environment (6' fence) and a strong hand on the leash. He's a powerful boy who pulls with purpose, but he's also incredibly treat-motivated and has shown great recall when called. Bailey is non-reactive toward other dogs and has been a superstar in playgroups, though his "bull-in-a-china-shop" energy means he'd likely do best in a home without small children who might get accidentally knocked over. He does have a sensitive side, especially during thunderstorms when he'll look to you for comfort and stay glued to your side. If you are looking for a young, strong, and affectionate companion who will keep you laughing with his playful toe-nibbles and athletic antics, Bailey is ready to leap right into your heart.
