BAILEY
Update 1st Jan:
Yesterday we moved Bailey from the veterinary practice he was handed in to one of our fosterers as an emergency.
She is unable to keep him long but agreed to take him in yesterday as we had nowhere for him to go!.
The HUGE advantage for us is that Sarah is very experienced and can give us a great initial assessment.
So far she says he has been fabulous.
He is clean indoors, knows several commands, settled overnight - which considering the recent upheavals in his life is exceptional, is gentle and sweet natured.
To be aware - Bailey is either a full or part bred Huntaway...While they may have been bred for an outdoor life and to work, Huntaways can still thrive in a family-friendly environment, as long as they get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. Giving them a 'job' is always the best way for these fabulous and intelligent dogs - agility, obedience, scent work etc.
Full updates to follow as the weather is pretty dreadful to do much more assessment outside but so far this all sounds VERY positive and remembering he is still only 8 months old he has SO much potential
If you feel you could offer a longer-term foster, or even better still a forever home, to this gorgeous boy please do complete our form on this site - thank you!
Initial info:
Bailey is just 8 months old and has been handed in to a veterinary practice after his owner was made homeless.
He is 23" tts and weighs 26kg.
He has few manners and little training but is a waggy and happy lad - if a little confused after being left at the vets.
We need an urgent foster for him.
He seems dog friendly but again no manners.
