Bailey is a beautiful, smart, and energetic 11 year old long-haired Chihuahua, on
the larger side of small at around 15 to 18 pounds. She is looking for a person
who is ready to be her companion.
Bailey's family is navigating some concurrent life changes and has asked for help
finding her a more suitable home. She has had some separation anxiety in the
past when left behind a gate away from her people, and she is starting a
medication trial along with additional training support to help her work through
it.
Bailey would be a wonderful match for someone who loves outings and walks and
who is willing to teach her how to be a couch potato. Right now she lives a bit
more like a full size dog, sleeping in her own bed and sitting next to her person
rather than on them. If you are looking for a dog who is already independent and
easygoing about her own space, she has that down. If you are hoping for a lap
cuddler, that is her next adventure to learn, and she will have a patient teacher in
the right home.
She would do well in a family with children who are experienced with dogs, or a
retired household with grandchildren three and up who are dog savvy.
