Hi, my name is Gracie! I'm a PURPLE pawprint, which means I will fit well into a home that meets some specific criteria. Here is what would work best for me in my new home: -Personality: Intelligent, energetic, friendly -Can Live with Kids: Unknown history, but may be okay with dog-savvy kids ages 8+. Up to counselor's discretion. -Can Live with Cats: Unknown history - will need proper introductions to ensure everyone gets along. -Can Live with Dogs: Yes, pending an initial introduction done here at WHS -Can do Apartment Living: Ideally no. Gracie would do best in a home with more space, but up to counselor's discretion. -Potty Trained: Yes -Bite History: No -Positive Reward Based Obedience Classes Required: No -Energy Level: Medium -Needs Medical Procedure Before Going Home: No -Additional Information: Gracie is an incredibly affectionate dog who loves her people! She was surrendered to the shelter for anxiety, but her previous veterinarian noted she is an energetic dog whose behavior was what was to be expected from a dog of her breed and age. Gracie is a smart girl who needs plenty of mental stimulation/enrichment to keep her engaged and feeling her best! We all know exercise is important for dogs, but mental stimulation is going to be just as (if not more) important for miss Gracie. This sweet girl will thrive in a home that can reassure her and provide her with a predictable routine, plenty of things to do, and lots of love! She'd likely do best in a home where someone is present often as that is what she's used to. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website (www.whatcomhumane.org/adopt) or in person at our facility. We recommend calling into the shelter after your application has been submitted so our front desk can give you next steps on our adoption process.
