About Gracie

Gracie is a confident little dynamo with a gift for climbing and an affection for snugglers, always seeking out the highest spot she can find—especially if it happens to be a big dog's back. Out in the yard, Gracie shows off endless stamina, darting between trees, chasing her furry friends, and never skipping an opportunity to scale a new obstacle. At day’s end, she turns into a blanket-burrito, happiest curled against someone who loves a good cuddle. What really sets Gracie apart is her loyalty to her brother Gryffin: for Gracie, this is a package deal. The two have been together since puppyhood, glued at the hip for every nap and playtime. She needs a home with a securely fenced yard (apartments or mobile homes aren’t her speed) and would do best with adults or kids over 10 who know how to respect her space. Young children aren’t a match for her energy and sensitive nature. No surprise—Gracie thrives with another small dog, i.e. Gryffin, always ready for the next shared adventure. Only private meetings are available for Gracie and Gryffin, so reach out if you’re ready for a pair of fun-loving, inseparable sidekicks. This duo has plenty of affection and hijinks in store for the right person. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
