Prepare to meet the heartwarming Gracie! 🥰 This lovely lady came to us on December 5, 2024, in quite a battle with life. She was skin and bones, a weary soul who had endured countless litters of pups, leaving her with nipples that literally dragged the ground. To add to her troubles, Gracie faced a crushed front leg, anemia that had robbed her of her spirit, and nails that were in desperate need of a manicure! 🤦‍♀️ My friends, she was not just in rough shape; she was fighting a true warrior's battle. After some extensive vet visits, we discovered that Gracie was battling Babesia, a tick-borne illness that attacks red blood cells. With a lot of care and love, we’ve managed to get that sorted and have given her the chance to heal. However, we also learned about an autoimmune condition that affects her nails, making them fragile and prone to bleeding. But through it all, Gracie has proven to be nothing short of an extraordinary trooper! 💪 As time has gone on, her coat is shining brighter, her spirit is lifting, and she’s learning to smile again. 🌈 Now, after a candid discussion at the vet about her long-term wellbeing, Gracie is ready to find a loving home. A home that understands elderly pets with beautiful souls like hers. She still loves to play, adores her toys, and gets along incredibly well with both dogs and cats. 🐾 While she may require a little extra attention with medication for her nails, pain management for her front leg injury, and some regular visits to a chiropractor or acupuncturist, Gracie is still brimming with joy and love! 💖 This gentle girl is not just a dog; she’s a sweet companion in need of a family willing to cherish her golden years. If you have a heart big enough to welcome this amazing older dog into your life, then it’s time to take the next step! Apply through the Buddy App to set up a meeting and see if Gracie is the perfect fit for your family! 🏡💖 ❤️ Remember, this girl has so much love left to give and she’s just waiting for the right family to embrace her!
