Say hello to Bailey, the lovable labrador with an insatiable appetite for both food and fun! This handsome fellow knows how to work his charm and is highly food motivated. He's mastered the "sit" command and walks like a pro on a leash. Bailey is also crate trained and has excellent potty manners. While he gets along famously with other dogs, Bailey prefers to have his dining experiences in solitude. To ensure a peaceful mealtime, his foster parent feeds him in his cozy crate.
Bailey is a big guy with a medium energy level, striking the perfect balance between playfulness and relaxation. As he continues to grow and explore, he's still learning the boundaries when it comes to chewing on things. Providing him with an array of toys and ensuring items are safely picked up will help keep his chewing tendencies in check. With Bailey, you'll have a loyal companion who's always up for a good time, whether it's a game of fetch, a leisurely walk, or simply enjoying some quality cuddle time.
If you're ready to welcome a loving and playful labrador into your home, Bailey is eagerly awaiting his forever family. Get ready to create lasting memories with this food-loving, leash-walking, crate-trained canine companion!

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
