Bailey will be 8 year old in March and he has lived with his present owners since he was a puppy. Unfortunately his owner is waiting for an operation on his knees, so cannot walk Bailey and his son Boomer and they are both too strong for his wife to handle.
Bailey’s recall is very good for his owner, but not good for his wife, so would need someone who is prepared to put some time in to training – it’s never too late! He is vaccinated and his booster will be due in August 2015.
Bailey barks when visitors arrive, but settles down very quickly. Our assessor said he stopped barking immediately he was allowed into the room to meet her and was very friendly, going and lying down once the introductions were over. However, he does not like the postman – all attempts by a previous postwoman to befriend him with biscuits didn’t work, so the new owner needs to be aware of this.
Bailey is not a good traveller – he isn’t sick, but he whines constantly during the journey. He barks when he first sees and meets other dogs but then settles down after a while.
