My name is Gracie!

My journey began several years ago when I was running scared.  I covered a lot of ground, hopped some freeways, visited a university and jumped into a yard where someone ignored me until I could be caught.  I was scared and scarred.  My skin showed years of neglect with flea rash and irritation.  I was underweight and terrified of being touched or around people.  No one came for me at the shelter and I was doomed to death.  Once exited by my capture team, It did not take long before I realized my life had changed and people meant food, massage and toys.  I have spent the last FOUR years living in a kennel at the rescue facility.  I am not good with dogs but am now great with people, adventures outdoors, on leash AND house trained.  No longer a youngster, I am now a senior girl.  I would love nothing more than to find a place to enjoy the creature comforts in a foster or adoptive home rather than limited time with volunteers and at rescue outings.  Could that be you?

Things to know about me -

- I am the resident toy hoarder of the house. I patiently wait for all of the Nylabones to be hosed into my kennel during cleaning, so I can play with them all

-food puzzle PRO!

-don’t let the age fool you, this girl has energy for days!

-walks well on leash, until a lizard or animal walks by then off to the races I go!

Flight Risk: do not leave unattended in a yard, crate training is a must when you are gone, tight grip on the leash is a must on adventures. Must be aware of open doors and windows
