Meet Gracie

Gracie is a beautiful 3 year-old, 60lb sweetheart who’s ready to find her forever-ever home this time. She absolutely adores people — gentle, loving, and wonderful with kids. Gracie has an incredible sense of smell and can sniff out any toy you hide (seriously, she’s a hide-and-seek champ ). She’s the perfect mix of chill and playful — just as happy to lounge by your side as she is to join you for a nice walk. Gracie thought she had found her forever home once before, but something unexpected happened with her adopter and she had to come back to our rescue. Despite that setback, Gracie’s loving spirit hasn’t changed — she’s still full of affection and ready to give her heart again. She’s been through a lot, including being bitten by another dog in a previous foster home, which made her cautious for a while. With training and patience, she’s blossomed beautifully and is no longer reactive. However, she’d still do best as the only dog in the home so she can have all the love and attention she truly deserves. ✨ She hasn’t been around cats, but she’s more than ready to be someone’s loyal companion and cuddle buddy for life. If you’re ready to give Gracie the forever home she’s been waiting for, she’ll fill your heart with endless love. Message us to meet this amazing girl!
