To live with at least one other confident dog. Bailey is a beautiful German Shepherd of 18 months. She has led a very sheltered life, without the robust exposure you would wish for as a young pup. Her character therefore was shaped into a devoted dog, nervous of human approach and dogs. We took her on as an emergency as her owner had lost her accommodation and her parents wouldn't hold her as their daughter supposed. Although she is kennelled, Janet, who works in the kennels, has taken a shine to her and takes her home with her in the evenings and she is mixing with her teeny little Chihuahua. Bailey has come on leaps and bounds with other dogs. When she first arrived her automatic response to another dog was to snarl at them and hide in a corner. Now she is the first to instigate play and mixes with all sizes and shapes of dog up to big old Rotti's. She still has a very special bond with her 'carer' Janet, but is coming round to other people. Obviously Bailey needs a Shepherd home where they have the sense to take her slowly, build up skills and confidence over months, not days. Once settled she enjoys routine and knowing what is going on. Our Bailey is a creature of habit and, as has happened a couple of times, if she feels under pressure then she will make her way to somewhere where she feels safe. Bailey is happy to go out for long walks. She is equally as happy with short walks. As long as she has her handler by her side she is a happy girl. She has been cat tested and passed with flying colours. We have just spayed, vaxed and chipped her. Her confidence is growing but we still have a way to go. She needs help to both accept strangers and expose her to the world. Although these are not good pictures you get a sense of her sense of vulnerability and yet also a sense she is on her way ... maturing her skills & becoming the magnificent dog she is destined to be.

Do you know what sort of homes she has been in poor girl. Love her colouring, she looks working bred and very nice too! Hope a nice home comes along for her very soon.

Rescue Remedies Posts: 988 Group: Members Member #807 Joined: 17 May 2007	Good evening droolers - an update from Bailey�s foster mum on our forum today: Quote: Hey guys well what can I say, so sorry for not letting you know how this wonderful girl is getting on!!!!!! Totally my fault and I need a good slap, but sorry again. Have been a bit mental with work and to be honest just wanted to spend some time getting to know her before I gave an update. Well I think the first thing I have to say is she has come on so far in the few weeks that we have had her. She has taken to myself, but it�s no problem for Ellie to do things with her. She loves the horses and the outside life. Vixen is her new best friend and Dudley thinks she is kinda ok too. Have had mum to visit with her dog and all the girls went tearing off around the field together trying to catch rabbits. (My MUM not included in that story)! Bailey is such a devoted dog, once you are friends she will do anything for you. Follow you around all day. We went to a competition this weekend and to start she wasn�t too sure about getting in the lorry, but once she realised she could sit on the chair and watch the world go by life got much better, took the lorry today to get fuel and she was there with the others ready to jump in. Bailey is good with the horses, she is working well with myself and a horse lead rope to take her for walks, not stressing at all, loves other dogs and horses, even ok with delivery men and just in general not so stressed out. She does do her guard dog act, but soon settles down. Amazingly she really likes our horse vet and has lots of waggy tails for him. Her commands are really good and recall is excellent. She really is enjoying life here and has fitted in very well she is such a sweet devoted dog that she really does need to go to a very special home. I could prob write lots more but this is one very special lady and too top it all she is just so pretty as the pics will show. Sorry again and will try to be better, hope you can forgive me :oops: Here are the pics - do have more and will post when I get some more time, but what a gorgeous girl - she is so pretty: Get this head shot - should be a model, lol!

Rescue Remedies Posts: 988 Group: Members Member #807 Joined: 17 May 2007	Just to let everyone know, Bailey is still looking for a home and we would like her to be placed in an experienced GSD home. A home that is also used to bringing the best out of a nervous dog.

Newbie Posts: 1 Group: Members Member #3,137 Joined: 25 March 2009 Postcode: HP27 0QG	hi there - we're new to the forum and were just wondering if there are any more updates on Bailey? We're really interested in her and would love to meet her if she's still available for adoption. Is there anyone that we should call? (we sent through the questionnaire a few days ago). She sounds like such a sweet girl! Thanks so much! Edited by Rae-Dan, 26 Mar 2009, 12:54 PM.
