About Bailey

Bailey has spent a whole year in foster care, and it’s hard to understand why she keeps getting passed over. She has a pure heart and a gentle loyalty, but she likes her home to herself—she doesn't want to share it with other dogs. Black pups like Bailey often get overlooked, but she brings so much warmth with her loyalty and affection. You’ll find her following you room to room, curling up close, and making quiet moments feel special. Her foster says she’s amazing, and it’s rare to meet a dog who makes you feel so important just by being there. Bailey’s looking for a family who will love her for her strong personality and her open, trusting heart. She gets along with children, so she's a great fit for a family home, as long as she's the only pet. Born on May 4, Bailey is a Taurus—which means she’s especially steady and devoted.
