About Gracie

Gracie is a delightful young Great Dane who has truly come into her own after joining us. Once nervous and underweight, she has transformed into a confident and lovable companion at just under 3 years old and 120 solid lbs of joy. Gracie thrives around other dogs and can coexist with cats, although she may chase them occasionally. She would do best in a breed-experienced home where her new family understands her needs. Another dog would complement her, as long as it’s not an alpha. Gracie is protective and has a gentle side. She knows her commands and enjoys sleeping under a cozy blanket. Crate trained and housebroken, Gracie is eager to meet her forever family. If there are children in the home, older and calmer kids who are dog-savvy would be ideal. Fostered in PA, Gracie comes from Dogs Best Friend Adoption Center, where pets are nurtured and well-prepped for their new lives. Don't hesitate! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
