About Grace

Grace has discovered the joy of running, making up for lost time!

Watching her embrace life is truly special. At 1.5 years old and approximately 40 pounds, Grace is a Lab/Pointer mix with an extraordinary transformation. Rescued from the streets after being hit by a car, she underwent a procedure that gave her a new lease on life. Today, you'd never guess what she's overcome! Grace bonds quickly with her people but values patience as she explores new surroundings. With time, she becomes an affectionate, playful companion eager to engage in family activities. Having another confident, friendly dog is essential for her continued growth and confidence. She thrives in a household where she receives plenty of attention and companionship. Grace can comfortably spend three to four hours crated when you're away, but she’s happiest sharing her day with her favorite humans.
