About Gracie Rose

Meet Gracie Rose! This lively one-year-old Australian Cattle Dog is on the search for her forever home through our Bluey's Second Start Program, thanks to personal circumstances that do not reflect her character. Gracie Rose embodies the spirited nature of her breed. She's not just looking for a cozy couch; she craves a home that understands the needs of an active working dog. With plenty of energy and intelligence, she thrives on mental challenges and physical activities. A ranch or farm would perfectly suit her instincts, giving her the chance to work and play. Currently, Gracie Rose shares her space with other dogs, and they coexist well. However, she does have some leash reactivity, so her adopters should be experienced and ready to help her work through this behavior. Gracie Rose would do best in a home without small children, as her enthusiasm and playfulness can lead to accidental bumps or scratches. She has boundless potential in the right environment and needs someone who appreciates the unique traits of a cattle dog. Gracie Rose is looking for a partner who will engage her spirit and provide the guidance she deserves. Could your home be the next chapter in Gracie Rose's life? She's ready to bring joy, energy, and love to the right family. Let's help her find her perfect match!
