Meet Bailey

The Dapper Aussie Mix with a Heart to Match

Get ready to fall head over paws for Bailey, our dazzling two-year-old Australian Shepherd mix, tipping the scales at 60 pounds. Wrapped in a striking black and white coat, Bailey brings a touch of elegance to every encounter. Despite his initial shyness, give him a few moments and he’ll warm up, unveiling a friendly spirit eager to connect.

Bailey is a model pupil when it comes to training; he's a quick learner eager to please, making progress with just a sprinkle of patience and consistency. He navigates new environments with a mix of caution and curiosity, settling in once he feels secure. While Bailey hasn’t been around children yet, his gentle demeanor suggests he’d be a respectful companion for older kids who understand his boundaries.

When it comes to other dogs, Bailey enjoys their company on his terms, showing a preference for quieter, more submissive playmates. His play style is understated yet engaging—perfect for someone looking for a dog who isn't overly boisterous. Although he hasn’t shown much interest in resource guarding, slow introductions are his jam, especially when meeting new furry friends.

At home, Bailey is a low-maintenance pal who is fully potty trained and settles into his crate with no fuss. On the leash, he’s a dream, walking calmly by your side, responsive to gentle corrections. While he does have a mild interest in small critters, it’s nothing that can’t be managed with a little attention.

Bailey would make a fantastic addition to a variety of homes, whether it's a cozy apartment or a home with a yard—as long as he gets his daily dose of exercise. He thrives under a soft-handed approach, responding well to positive reinforcement and ready to learn anything his human partners wish to teach.

If you’re looking for a loyal friend who combines the beauty of a show dog with the brains of a scholar, Bailey is your perfect match. He’s ready to fill your days with joy and your heart with love. Are you ready to open your home to this wonderful soul?
