Meet Gracie, a beautiful Belgian Malinois with a gentle heart who is still learning to feel safe in the world around her. She came to us as a stray and can be very shy and timid, especially when meeting new people or experiencing unfamiliar situations. Gracie takes time to build trust, but for someone willing to be patient and consistent, that bond will be incredibly special. Once she feels comfortable, she shows her true nature-sweet, gentle, and deeply loyal to the people she knows and trusts. Because of her breed and sensitive personality, Gracie would do best with an experienced adopter who understands the needs of a Belgian Malinois and is ready to dedicate the time, energy, and patience it takes to help her grow in confidence. She has a moderate energy level and will benefit from both mental and physical enrichment in a structured environment. Gracie is still working on house training and will need continued guidance as she adjusts to home life. With the right support, she has so much potential to blossom into a devoted and loving companion.
