Description
Dog Breed: Bernese Mountain Dog (long coat). adoption fee $350.00 **PLEASE READ FULL BIO - SPECIAL NEEDS DOG** Bailey is a beautiful, sensitive girl with special needs who is going to require a very special adopter—someone patient, present, and willing to let her move at her own pace. She’s not a “plug-and-play” dog, but for the right person, she will be an incredibly meaningful companion. She won't seek out attention or cuddles, but won't shy away from them either. ✨ What Bailey Does Well Fully potty trained in her foster home and in new environments Crate trained and sleeps soundly overnight (goes in willingly when called!) Does great with baths, brushing, and grooming Calm, quiet, and non-destructive Heavy leash puller at times, but manageable with consistency and confidence Bailey will do best in a home with a VERY present person (retired, work from home) and possibly a kind dog friend to help her gain confidfence. Bailey will need a calm, and relatively quiet home. She is happy to learn -- she just needs a loving place to understand how to navigate dog life. ***Bailey will require regular grooming and monthly anxiety meds. Expected cost of the medication is around $10-$20 per month.*** Bailey is ready to bring warmth and companionship to the right family. If you’re looking for a loyal friend with a big heart, Bailey might be the perfect match! New foster dogs need time to feel safe. They may be skittish or fearful, so always stay with them outside—even in fenced yards. Ensure collars and leashes fit securely to prevent escapes. Your gentle presence and protection help them feel loved and secure. The adoption fee helps allow Perfect Paws to provide all animals with current, age appropriate vaccinations which include, DHLPP, Kennel Cough and Rabies (if the pet is at least 13 weeks old), and spay/neuter when necessary. The fee also helps with the cost of deworming; heartworm testing (if the pet is at least 1 year old), heartworm prevention as well as flea and tick prevention for animals cared for through the rescue. He will go home with a collar, leash, and vaccination record. If you would like to adopt this very special K-9 kid, please go DIRECTLY to our website to complete our convenient Online Adoption Form.

Overview:
The Bernese Mountain Dog is a striking and gentle breed originating from the Swiss Alps, where they were traditionally used as farm dogs for herding, guarding, and pulling carts. Physically, they are large, sturdy dogs with a distinctive tricolor coat of black, rust, and white, known for their expressive dark eyes and powerful build. Temperamentally, Berners are renowned for their calm, affectionate, and loyal nature, making them excellent companions. They are generally good with children and other pets, fitting well into active family life, though their size makes them less ideal for small apartment living without ample outdoor access. While their sweet disposition is a major draw, prospective owners should be aware of certain health considerations, including a relatively shorter lifespan and predispositions to conditions like hip and elbow dysplasia and certain cancers. Despite this, their unwavering devotion and majestic presence bring immense joy to their families.
