Bailey

Quick Facts: Breed: Shepherd- Hound mix Gender: Female, spayed Age: 2 years old Size: 60 pounds Good with… Dogs? Maybe! Cats? Unknown Kids? Yes! Hello! My name is Bailey and I am the most adorable, playful dog around! History I had a rough first year of life and was surrendered to Herkimer Humane Society before my current mom found me. I was very anxious at the shelter, apparently the people who surrendered me were NOT NICE folks, but life has been much, much better since I got adopted. Clearly, the people who had me when I was a puppy did not treat me kindly, which has left me very skittish with men until I get to know them.

History I was bounced around a bit as a little pup, getting some love and care with some teenagers who were doing their best to take care of me. The second teen’s family said I could live with them, but had to stay outside 24/7 because one of their family members is allergic to dogs. They were nice, but I didn’t love being outside all the time, too much time alone, and autumn was here and it was getting COLD!
