10/19/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Bailey is so ready for his walk. He sees me at the door waving my leash and he is up in no time. He might be old but he hops out of his cage without help and walks the stairs nicely leading to the yard. A good walker he is, house trained too without marking his territory. Bailey clearly has eye issues but he does not bump into anything. He has still a great appetite. Bailey comes when called and chooses on his own to sit very close to me. He is a very sweet guy who loves caresses, looks at me gently with his very dark eyes and wags his tail non stop. I love this old gent!!!! Bailey, surrendered because of housing issues has been outstandingly cared for. He looks quite healthy, wears an impeccable coat and has a great weight. He lived with older kids and even cats and has great comments about him. Dear Bailey needs you tonight. He is a great guy who still has a lot to offer to an owner who loves and likes to care for seniors. Bailey is at the Manhattan Care Center.
