Baylee is bound to steal your heart instantly because she is just the sweetest little princess! When you first meet her, she can be very quiet and nervous, but she can be a bit mischievous once she opens up! So far, we have noticed that she loves digging and hiding and playing nonstop with her brother. She loves chewing on sticks, so be careful! The good thing about Baylee, though, is that she knows when she has had enough of something. I often find her jumping up on the sofa to relax on her own and take a nap. She is quite the cuddler and has also loved snuggling up for a nap in bed with us.
She's still adjusting to the sights and sounds of the city, as well as the concept of a leash, but will eventually walk a bit with a lot of time, patience, and encouragement. She is not very food motivated but adores hearing what a good girl she is! Baylee does okay in the crate but will whine a little bit for about 15 minutes or so - eventually she will fall asleep. While she has certainly opened up a bit since being with us and found her voice, ultimately Baylee is a sweet, snuggly, slightly timid girl who just wants to be around her people. Any family would be extremely lucky to have this special girl.
Baylee is approximately 0y 3m 12d old and may be 45 to 55 pounds when fully grown. They are microchipped and up to date on all age-appropriate medical care. Their breed is unknown as we have not had a DNA test done.
Although our dogs are listed as unknown breed, buildings with specific dog restrictions typically enforce their rules based on what breeds a dog appears to resemble. It's always important to keep that in mind and know your building's policies before adopting a dog.

Every dog is an individual — temperament depends far more on this dog's history and personality than on breed. The rescue's write-up is the best guide.
Most adult dogs do well with 30-60 minutes of walking a day plus play and sniffing time.
Ask the rescue about leash manners, elevator and stair comfort, alone-time tolerance, and whether the dog settles in a small space.
