Meet Bailey

Bailey is a tender-hearted girl with a whole lot of love to give. At 3 years old, she’s playful, affectionate, and incredibly devoted to her people—but she’s also learning to navigate the world with confidence and could use a little help from a patient, understanding forever family. 💞

💖 Personality Snapshot

Bailey is:
🐾 Outgoing and affectionate with people
🛋 A champion snuggler and full-time couch potato
👅 A leaner, licker, and certified Velcro Dane
🐶 Playful with other large dogs
😌 Quiet and gentle
🥺 Sensitive and easily startled by tone or loud noises
💤 Lazy with bursts of puppy-like playfulness

She loves her humans and dog friends, and she’s happiest when cozied up next to someone she trusts—whether that’s a person or pup.

🐶 Home Habits & Training

✅ Crate trained
🚧 Still working on full house training
✅ Knows “sit” and responds best to soft, encouraging praise
🦮 Learning leash manners
🛏 Sleeps soundly, preferably next to someone she loves
🌳 Needs a very patient and gentle approach to the outdoors—Bailey is fearful of the backyard and being outside alone.

She was comfortable at first, but something shifted, and now she’s hesitant. Some days she’ll follow the pack out the door, but most times she needs time, reassurance, and the option to come back inside quickly. Her foster is working to rebuild trust with praise, treats, and baby steps—and her forever family will need to continue helping her grow in confidence at her own pace.

🐾 She can jump short fences, so a secure, tall fence is a must in her forever home.

🐕 Plays beautifully with large dogs, especially her Great Dane foster siblings—her games are gentle and goofy, often involving face nibbles and joyful zoomies (when indoors!). She’s not destructive, and she has zero interest in toys unless another dog invites her to play.

🏡 Bailey’s Ideal Home

Bailey would thrive with:
✔️ A calm, quiet household
✔️ Teen or preteen kids who respect her gentle energy
✔️ A confident, well-socialized dog (or being your one and only)
✔️ At least one adult home often to support her emotionally
✔️ A patient adopter who can help her build confidence
✔️ A fenced yard with tall, secure fencing
✔️ Lots of love, soft places to nap, and understanding of her sensitive nature

Bailey is a work in progress in all the best ways. With encouragement, routine, and a gentle hand, this sweet girl will continue to blossom into the devoted, loving companion she’s meant to be. 💫

If you’re ready to meet a couch-loving cuddle-bug who just needs a little extra reassurance to shine, Bailey is waiting to lean into your heart. 🖤
