Bailey!

It's has been an exciting, busy, and stressful past few days! Miss Bailey certainly keeps us on our toes! Friday after work we took her for her first trip the vet. She did so well (for the most part!) and we learned a few more things about her. The vet thinks she is part Basenji and part Shepherd. We had never even heard of Basenjis before this. She definitely meets some of the criteria! Also, the vet is pretty sure she's actually about 1 year old. Miss Bailey came to the shelter on October 20th, so who knows where she was for the first ~10 months of her life! She's 22 pounds and the vet doesn't think she'll get much taller than she is now, she just might fill out a little. There were 2 kittens in the waiting room at the vet. Bailey met them and did okay.

Saturday we took her to the park for the first time!! Here she is enjoying the car ride to the park!

She ran and ran and ran! We tried to work on the command "Come" and she did okay. She also met a lot of other dogs, all but 1 who were bigger than her! (Some of them A LOT bigger!) She did really well with all of them, except for this one white dog but he was mean to everyone, and he barked at her first, she didn't start it. I wish I had taken some pictures when she and about 5 other dogs were all sniffing each other and checking each other out!! Here's a video of her playing "fetch." I think she may have picked up a different stick than what was thrown but whatever, she's learning ;)

This dog climbed up on this big ledge! He was declaring himself King of the Dog Park I think :)

Miss Bailey slept for the rest of the evening after the dog park! She was pretty wiped out.

This morning we played a little in the kitchen and she learned about the wall protector!

We're getting ready to head to the park again so she can meet her friends for the first time! Wish us luck. I know they'll all be instant friends :)
