About Gracie

Gracie, affectionately known as "Gracie Lee," is a gentle and sweet five-year-old Chihuahua mix weighing thirteen pounds. Though she can be a bit shy initially, once trust is established, she transforms into a lovebug eager to cuddle and bask in affection. Gracie thrives with other dogs and enjoys her time at daycare. Whether as a companion to another friendly dog or as a solo pet, she flourishes with attention and companionship. Fully house trained and comfortable in her crate, she walks calmly on a leash and understands basic commands, responding well to positive reinforcement. This quiet girl adapts well to loud noises, making her an ideal candidate for apartment living. Moderately energetic, she enjoys regular strolls where she can explore, balanced with cozy relaxation at home. Gracie would thrive in a calm environment with a patient adopter who respects her pace in building trust and celebrates her progress along the way. Her foster describes her as a gentle soul, perfect for making quiet moments at home special. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
