My First Posting...Boy, am I nervous!!





Hello-
My name is Bailey, Stillmeadow Bailey is my given name. I am a full-blooded, well bred bird dog. I live with my Mom and Dad, my sisters Katie and Kitty, and my human siblings, Alisha and Austin. I have a great life. It didn't start out so great though. I was sold to a man that wanted me to be his champion bird dog. That didn't pan out. Mom says that he wasn't treating me like I deserved to be treated. He gave me to her because he thought I was worthless and Mom thought I had a lot of value. So she took me home and the rest is history. Don't get me wrong, I am an excellent bird dog but as Mom says, I was meant to love, not hunt. So, I only hunt recreationally in the backyard.




My sis, Katie has been with us for a little over a year now. Mom rescued her too. She's really got the life. She sleeps right on Mom's pillow all tucked in between Mom's neck and shoulder. She snores really loud so I don't see how Mom stands it. Katie is a crazy dog. She snorts really funny but she's lots of fun.




Kitty, my other sister, doesn't have a lot to do with me or Katie unless she's hissing at us, and boy, does that scare us. She pretty much has the run of the house. Mom stole her. Well, stole may be a little harsh. Kitty decided several years ago, before I was around, that she wanted to live with Mom but she really belonged to the people down the street. She came and went as she still does but mostly stayed with Mom (Mom's dog Prissy had just died, so Kitty was helping her out). When Mom moved away from that neighborhood she couldn't decide if she should take Kitty with her but decided that she would on account that she grew to love that silly cat even though she hadn't really named her, she's allergic to cats, and Kitty doesn't even let Mom love on her. Cats are strange, everything has to be on their "terms".



My human siblings are really Dad's kids but Mom loves them as much as she can imagine she'd love her own kids if she had any (Alisha is the girl on the far right - she's really pretty, and this is a picture of Austin with Dad). I don't think she loves them as much as she loves me but, hey, that's just my gut feeling. They are at our house a lot and are lots of fun. They are 16 and 12 and have lots of friends that hang out at our house too so it's usually busy at home.

I have lots to share and hope to make some friends by creating my blog. Drop me a line if you want. I'd better go for now.

Long Live the Treat Drawer,
Bailey

Hi Bailey! Don't be nervous about starting a blog. Pretty soon you will have TONS of pals and it will seem like your life will start to revolve around getting your mom to take flattering pics of you :)

I think Katie is cute, but then again, I'm a pug, too! Stop by my blog sometime.

Puggy kisses

Hi Bailey

I was nervous too. Also my mum is silly and slow so she usually stuffs things up when she types at the computer.

Welcome to DWB !!

Love from Hammer
