Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Get the DNA-kit ready for this adorable and unique looking girl!!! Gracie reminds of us a little bear with her long bushy fur but then the tiny head and Shar-pei ears and just so special and unusual that we can't stop smiling every time we see her.
The best part is that she has a bubbly, happy, and friendly personality so you CAN smile all the time with her….but be ready to keep active because Gracie is very young and loves to play and play and play. She will entertain herself, she will play ball with you, she will play with other dogs, she will play in the water, etc.
She was evaluated and has no red-flag issues but needs some work on her manners and we would love a dedicated owner who can really help her mature into a wonderful adult because she is too young to be confined for so long in the shelter. She is already spayed and ready to be your gal----We know she does great with other dogs provided they are age and play level appropriate for her because she does not like to just lay around but wants to splash in the water or bounce around with her canine friends right out of the gate and needs no warming up period!!
Gracie does not show any mouthy behavior so could be a nice family dog although she still jumps up on people when she is excited so everyone must be okay with teaching her manners and being patient with her. We love this chubby little bear with the tiny ears….Please come play with her in our yard and see if you can give her the home she really deserves!!!
