Hi… my name is Gracee. If you met me today, you’d see a happy, playful, smart little dog with bright eyes and a wagging tail. You’d never guess that just a few months ago, I was curled up in the back of a cold kennel at the Palmdale Shelter, too scared to even look at anyone. I didn’t know what was going to happen, but I could hear the whispers… my time was almost up. I am 1 year and 9 months old 33 lb Australian Cattle Dog mix, fully vaccinated, spayed and house-trained. I live with my foster family in LA and am available for adoption and can travel anywhere in US and Canada for the right family. Love doesn’t know borders—and neither do I. If you’ve been waiting for a loyal, affectionate, and soulful companion who will love you with everything she’s got, I might be the one. My adoption fee is $600USD You can apply here by clicking the link below or copy and paste in a new window: Adoption Application Link: https://forms.gle/v3pZu61Vk7b47uTc9 Here is my story: I had so much love inside me, but I didn’t know if I’d ever get the chance to give it. Then… she came. My rescuer. She didn’t just see a shy, trembling dog — she saw me. And in that moment, my life changed forever. She took me home, gave me a warm bed, gentle hands, and words that made me feel safe. At first, I wasn’t sure how to be a “happy dog.” But every day, she believed in me. She showed me the world wasn’t so scary, that treats are delicious, and that playing fetch is the most fun thing ever invented. We went hiking, met other dogs, and I learned that friends come in all shapes and sizes. I’m not just alive now — I’m living. I’m crate and potty trained, I love learning new tricks, and I’m told I’m really smart (and honestly… it’s true). I still remember what it feels like to be forgotten, which is why I’ll never take love for granted. Now, I’m waiting for my forever family — the ones who will love me for the rest of my life. I promise I’ll give you everything I have — my trust, my loyalty, my goofy smile, and my whole heart. I’m Gracee, and I’m ready to go home.
