Bailey was found at a swap meet in Hanford at approximately four-five months old. A woman was overheard saying that she was going to euthanize her if no one took her home. My daughter brought her home to save her from this fate. She appears to be a Malinois shepherd but may be a mix.

Bailey will receive her final vaccinations on November 12, 2024 and she has an appointment to be spayed. Bailey is in good health with a good appetite. She has recently been dewormed and received flee & tick treatment. Bailey is in good health with a good appetite. She is active and enjoys playing both with people and by herself. She is not on any medication, has no apparent ailments, and is well formed.

Bailey is a loving and playful 6-month-old puppy. She currently is living with my husband, adult daughter, and I. We have an outside cat (she is not allowed to chase her) and she has played nicely with a friend’s kitten under supervision. She would be a good family pet and has demonstrated the ability to bond with the people she lives with. We are taking her on walks and exposing her to more people and animals. Sometimes when Bailey meets a stranger, she becomes scared and barks and growls at them. Like most shepherds, she needs time to get used to new people. We have not exposed her to children but on walks she is calm around them. Bailey is sweet and is not an alpha dog.

Bailey is house broken. She goes to the back door and stays there until we let her out to do her business. She has never had an accident in the house. She is in the process of some basic training and currently responds to sit, stay, and down. She is working on her socialization skills with people and other animals. She is food motivated. We are also training her to not pull on the leash when out for a walk. She is not crate trained and sleeps in my daughter’s room at night.

Bailey is the typical puppy and chews a lot. She loves her toys; her current favorite is a small rubber football. She enjoys playing tug of war and running around the yard. She is happiest when she is with her family, although she spends time by herself in the backyard. She often naps and relaxes or plays with her toys in the living room during the day. She is accustomed to being a passenger in the car.
