Bailey needs a home


Tonight I found this in my email. This sweet girl really needs a chance to shine. She needs a place to call home, and people that will value and love her. Yes she may be a diamond in the rough but she has the potential to become a star. Here is what the shelter has to say about Bailey


SPCA in Dawson Creek, BC. We are contacting you in regards to a wonderful rotti, named Bailey. She is a four years old and already spayed. One morning when we came to work she was tied to the fence of our yard with a very large tow rope and a blanket to lay on. She was very thin and had a bad infestation of tape worm. She has been with us since March 3. We managed to track down an owner thanks to a tag on her collar. However, the lady said they had given her away two years ago to some guy who owns a tow truck business. Bailey is extremely affectionate with all of the staff and volunteers here at the shelter, but she does display barrier aggression when she is in her kennel or in our yard and a stranger approaches. So far if we introduce people to her without a fence in between she is always a super happy girl! She also loves to play with other dogs, but can have issues with other females as she is a more dominant dog. We haven’t had a lot of interest in Bailey up here, and when we do it’s not the best home for her. We were hoping to get her into foster or out to a rescue that could find her the right home. Right now we don’t have any foster homes that would know how to work with her so she becomes a better trained pooch. The staff works with her(mostly myself and one other woman) every day at the shelter and she is coming along very well. So, even if we could just post her on your website that would be very much appreciated. We love Bailey and know that with the right home she’ll have the life she deserves instead of being a tow yard dog. Anything you can do to help would be terrific. Thanks for your time.
Bailey deserves a chance away from the shelter to show everyone how wonderful she can be. Please, if you can help, contact the South Peace SPCA. sp_spca@pris.bc.ca I know they would love to talk to you about her.
