Bailey
Bailey’s story began with a rough start—found as a stray, she wandered her way into the heart of Dr. Staackmann at just six months old. Since then, she’s made up for lost time with an abundance of love, naps, and belly rubs.
A sun-chaser by nature, Bailey can often be found stretched out in a sunny patch, snoozing like it’s her job. When she's not napping, she’s busy snacking, surveying her kingdom from the coziest spot in the house, or engaging in spirited play sessions with her beloved collection of stuffed animals.
Equal parts sweet and sassy, Bailey has mastered the art of living the good life. Her soulful eyes, signature snorts, and unwavering loyalty make her not just a pet, but a cherished member of the family.
