Hailey 06-037 [1]

6/14/06: This sweet beautiful girl is Hailey. Hailey was adopted in March but due to unforeseen family circumstances which left no time to interact with Hailey, she was surrrendered back to RAGOM.

She is 2 years old and her last vet appointment listed her as 70 lbs but I don't know where the extra 20 lbs are. I think she is very petite.

Hailey greeted my cats and explored the yard and found it to be acceptable for the time being.

She is the perfect house guest. She is quiet when I am on the computer or putzing around the house but is very energetic once we get outside to play fetch. She has an abundance of energy and would like a family that has the time to give her the attention and exercise she needs.

Hailey's original owners did say that Hailey growled at young children. She was not thrilled with my 3 year old neighbor either so I would caution people with small children if you are contemplating meeting Hailey. Hailey will be meeting small children while in my care so this issue will be explored further.

On our first walk this morning Hailey protected me from a big white bear that was standing on the corner looking at us. (I live in White Bear Lake so there are many, many white bears in my neighborhood). She kept looking back after we passed the scarey bear to make sure it wasn't following us.

I don't think Hailey will be with me very long since she is such a well behaved yet energetic 2 year old.

I will write more as I get to know her but if you want a loving companion with a lot of energy, Hailey is your girl.
