About Gracie Ann Video

Gracie Ann was found abandoned in a grocery store parking lot, unsure and alone, but quickly landed in foster care and settled into indoor life. Despite early fears that she might be pregnant, it turned out she was in heat, and shortly after, she suffered a serious infection called pyometra. Things got scary for a while, but she overcame it with surgery and some time in the hospital. Now, she’s completely healthy with perfect bloodwork and a new lease on life. Gracie Ann is about two years old, spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, and heartworm negative. Her house manners are solid—she’s house trained and does well outside a crate. The rescue believes she thrives best with another dog since she genuinely loves to play and socialize. She isn’t a dog who enjoys solo life; a canine companion makes her happiest. If you’re looking for an affectionate, playful pup who’ll bring warmth to your home, Gracie Ann is ready in Lexington, NC. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
