My story

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

Looking for your one and only? So is Gracie.

Gracie is a gorgeous 4.5-year-old German Shepherd with 80 pounds of loyalty, love, and playful energy. She's smart, stunning, and absolutely devoted to her people—Gracie lights up around humans and bonds deeply with everyone she meets. Her ideal home? One where she can soak up all the attention, and get all the love, and snuggles you have to give.

This girl is happiest outside—she’s a fetch fanatic who gently drops the ball at your feet and waits with hopeful eyes for the next throw. While she’s not big on treats, she’ll do just about anything for her favorite toys, and she thrives in a fenced yard where she can run, play, and show off her goofy, joyful side.

Gracie is house-trained, crate-trained, and a quiet, polite housemate. Every now and then she might get curious about what’s on the counter (who wouldn’t?), but she responds well to gentle guidance and learns quickly. She’s eager to please, and her intelligent, loyal nature makes her a dream for someone who enjoys both play and companionship.

Because she wants all your love to herself, Gracie must be the only pet in the home—but trust us, she’s more than enough. Her big heart has room for you, your family, and all the cuddles you can give.

If you’re looking for a devoted, loving best friend who will be by your side through every adventure, Gracie is ready to be the center of your universe.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Since we make a lifetime commitment to any animal that comes into our program, we only adopt out animals to people in our area..

If you are interested in adopting a CAWS cat or dog, please fill out the online application at http://www.caws.org/application/, email adopt@caws.org or call 328-4731. For the most timely response applying online is recommended.

We respond as quickly as possible but as we are a volunteer based organization and do not have full time staff, we respond as quickly as possible.

Go meet their pets

CAWS does not have a conventional shelter facility - all CAWS animals waiting for adoption are in foster homes. The number of animals we can help find new homes for is closely linked to how many CAWS foster homes are available. For additional information regarding how you, too, can become a foster, please see our fostering page located on our web site!

CAWS volunteers bring cats and dogs to the PetSmart near 2100 South and 300 West in South Salt Lake on the third and fourth weekends of each month

We are also at the Sugarhouse PETCO (1165 Wilmington Ave) the first Saturday of each month.
