Adotar Bailey

Bailey is a sweet, wiggly and affectionate Spitz looking for understanding owners who can give him time to build his confidence. Typical of his breed, he can be vocal and can be reactive towards both people & dogs if unsure or if he is not given space. Once Bailey knows you, his personality really comes out. He loves hands-on fuss, staying close to his favourite people, exploring on walks and settling down with a good chew. He also loves having his own safe space and is very fond of his crate. Bailey can initially be unsure of unfamiliar people and prefers to make friends at his own pace. Once that friendship has been made, however, he can become an enthusiastic and cuddly companion. He has made fantastic progress whilst in our care and has shown how affectionate and playful he can be when he feels secure. He enjoys getting out and about and has shown that he can cope brilliantly with busy park environments, including passing people, children, cyclists, joggers and other dogs. Bailey can sometimes be unsure during direct dog greetings, so he would like to be the only dog in his new home while continuing to enjoy carefully chosen walking companions. Bailey is looking for owners who will understand his sensitive side, respect when he needs a little space and continue building on all the progress he has already made. In return, they will get a funny, affectionate little character who loves being close to the people he trusts. Due to his worries around formal handling, he is looking for owners that will be willing to muzzle him for any veterinary and grooming-related handling going forward. He has been trained to wear a muzzle whilst onsite, but will need continued training to ensure he remains comfortable with this. Bailey is looking for a home with quiet walking routes, away from any hustle & bustle. He could potentially live with sensible & experienced older teens that understand to give him space whilst settling & finding his feet. He may also be able to live with a confident, dog savvy cat.
