My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Name: Grace Elaine
Breed: Pittie/Shar Pei mix
Approximate age: 1.5 yrs
Approximate size: Medium about 50 lbs
Good with dogs? Yes but she is very shy and timid. She needs time when meeting a new dog. She does well with other dogs that are calm and not in her face.
Cats? Unknown
Kids? Yes!!!!!
How are they doing with potty training? 100% potty trained, but momma does NOT like going outside in the rain
How are they doing in their crate? 100% crate trained. "Goes to bed" consistently with a treat reward.
Energy level? Medium to high. She loves wrestling and playing with other dogs.
Any issues with guarding? No
Leash reactivity? No. She walks wonderfully on a leash.
Fearful? Grace is very shy and timid. She takes a bit to get used to someone. She does best when allowed to approach a new person versus them rushing up to her.
Aggression? She has growled and shown her teeth when someone new is too in her face and pushing themselves on her.
Separation anxiety? No but she gets very nervous, anxious at the vet.
Anything else you'd like to add? Grace is a super sweet and dedicated family girl. She is smart and knows simple commands. She enjoys chasing her tail like a crazy girl and sleep in very precarious positions. She is guaranteed to put a smile on your face if you are willing to be patient.

More about this rescue

ThisIsHouston is a rescue dedicated to helping those who cannot ask for help!

The inundation of graphic dog posts and images on social media seems to have rendered a lot of people helpless. The bystander effect has grabbed a hold of our city and it isn’t loosening its grip. Most people are not aware of the stray overpopulation problem going on in this city. The others don’t help because somebody else will. Well, we are ‘somebody else’. We have no super powers. We have no magic formula or secret that gives us the ability to do what we do. We are just an example of what can be done when people come together for a common cause and leave egos at the door. Why do we do this? Because we choose to. Because we are tired of dogs suffering needlessly. And because we refuse to live in a world where there is a choice not to help.
