Little miss Hailey has been with me a month. She has had a busy month. She has become an expert at hauling tree branches, painting, pulling weeds, keeping the yard free from vermin like birds, squirrels and rabbits and entertaining the kids around her yard. She also went on a vacation to Maple Grove to play with her new friend Winston.

Hailey has been entertaining the neighbors with her antics in my sprinklers. Hailey will play in any type of sprinkler. She loves to run through the sprinkler and attack those streams of water. She can't figure out why she can't grab ahold of those streams of water. She has finally figured out how to tip the sprinkler upside down and how to create her own streams of water. Hailey is very creative.

My three-year-old neighbor likes to call Hailey to the fence and give her branches to chew, and Hailey always accommodates her wishes. My other neighbors are 1, 8 and 13, and they love to watch Hailey swim. Hailey will run to the fence and get her pets and then run into her pool. Hailey is more interested in older kids. I think Hailey would like to play with someone who is at least 10 years old. Hailey also watches for the teenagers across the street and will bark until they come over and give her the attention she thinks she deserves.

Even though I was told that Hailey is growly with young kids, I think kids who are respectful and don't pull and grab at her would be fine.

If you would like to have Hailey join your family please e-mail placement. She is an easy dog to have around, she just wants someone to love her and tell her how beautiful she is.
