Bailey is a 1 year old bully cross weighing about 80lbs. She has been through puppy school and knows basic commands. She walks well on leash when there is not too much noise and stimulation. We have found that she is scared of loud noises and takes some convincing to go for walks. She does not consistently go potty on walks and is more comfortable going in the backyard. We are continuing to work on this.
Bailey takes time to warm up to new people but can easily be won over with treats. She seems to have more fear of men and it takes her longer to warm up. We continue to work on introducing her to new people and she is being more receptive to strangers and less fearful. Once she trusts you and warms up to you, she is the sweetest, cuddlest and most loyal dog. She loves to follow her people around and is happiest just being near her people.
Although she has lived with very young kids, it is recommended no young kids simply because she is a big girl who doesn't know she's a big girl. She loves to play with other dogs and has lived with dogs of various sizes from 10lbs to 60lbs. However, she has shown some dog selectiveness. She has not been cat tested but will generally ignore any that she sees on walks. Although crate trained, she is allowed to free roam even when we're out for the day. She will just lay on the stairs and guard the house. She also gets car sick. While happy to jump into the car, she is stressed once you start driving and may get sick.
When she's happy, you'll know because she grabs a toy and scrunches up her face and has full body wiggles. Bailey is looking for someone who can be patient and understanding of her fears and someone she can curl up next to and snuggle with. If you're looking for a big sweet girl who thinks she's a lap dog, Bailey's the girl for you!
