Bailey, aka Bernice's Bailey, is a gorgeous white-and-brindle 7-year-old female, born November 3, 1997. Her sire was Grey's Statesman and her dam was Bernice Mae. Bailey raced in Dubuque starting August 7, 1999 and was retired November 2, 2000 at her last race at Mile High in Denver. Bailey has had two litters of pups, but her brood days are over, and she is ready to find her forever home. Bailey is cat trainable and is currently in a foster home with cats.
Don't let Bailey's age fool you. If it weren't for the tattoo in her ear that says she's almost 7 years old, you might think she was 3 or 4 at most. She has a lot of energy and is very playful, but like any greyhound, also enjoys lounging around the house. Her favorite toys are the ones that squeak and given a basket full of toys, she'll pull out the one that makes noise. Bailey is a very friendly girl. She gets along well with her foster sister, Serena the Cat. She loves to meet new people and make new doggie friends. Of course, like any dog, she likes to go for walks on her leash and does very well. She doesn't pull and with some encouragement will walk right by your side.
Bailey is an excellent companion because she likes to be wherever you are…in the living room watching TV; if you're at the computer, she sits right behind you; at night, she likes to sleep in the bedroom, either on her bed or in her crate. Bailey does crate well, sometimes she will even go in her crate on her own. It is seems to be a safe haven for her. She is a very loving dog; when she wants attention and wants you to pet her, she will stand in front of you and rub her head on your legs. Everyone who meets Bailey comments on how pretty, sweet and friendly she is. She will be a great addition to any family.
