Gracie is a uniquely charming, low-to-the-ground dog with ears that seem big enough to pick up every conversation in the house. There is an intensity and clarity to her gaze—a look that seems to say something important, if only you’re tuned in. Her breed mix is anyone’s guess, but what’s certain is her confidence; she moves through life with a sure step and isn’t bothered by short legs or a mysterious background. She loves her people dearly and prefers to spend as much time near them as possible. Life with Gracie is about slow walks, relaxing together at home, and absorbing all of her affection. She’s fully house trained, comfortable on the leash, happy in the car, and sleeps quietly through the night. She gets along well with other dogs, cats, and children. Gracie wants to be close—she’ll settle on your feet or as near as she can manage for maximum companionship. Gracie does have some arthritis and back pain, so she avoids stairs and will happily let you carry her. A single-level home with a fenced yard is ideal, giving her the space to enjoy exploring and sunbathing at her leisure. She also lives with Cushing’s disease, so she needs medication and would benefit from regular joint supplements and vet check-ins. If you’re seeking a loyal, affectionate companion who brings calm joy to every day, Gracie could be the devoted friend you’ve been waiting to meet. Click apply to start the adoption process.
