Gracie was originally adopted back in 2018 and at that time she was named Bree. She was recently taken into ARWOB’s care after her owner passed away. Sadly, the family was not able to keep her, so she was relinquished back to us in April 2025. She currently is being fostered by one of our wonderful foster families and here is what they have to say about her as of 6/3/25: "Gracie has been such a sweet girl and a pleasure to have stayed with us. She loves to go outside and explore the yard as much as she loves napping in her bed. She has had no accidents inside the house as she lets you know she wants to go out by standing by the door and does her business quickly with no playing around. She is happy in her crate - we leave it open and she comes and goes between it and her two other dog beds. We’ve gone on a few walks and she settles down quickly and is not reactive to other dogs. She does great in the car - happy to be belted in and just sits down on the seat. Gracie doesn’t appear to have anxiety in the home - doorbells and new people do not phase her. We’ve left her alone for a few hours with a Kong and she doesn’t bark when we leave or return. She rarely barks in the yard - except a few barks to say hi to the kids next door. Gracie ignores the bunny and cat we have - even when the cat antagonizes her by getting up close and staring. She will put the cat in his place with a quick bark. She ignores the bunny completely. My husband loves all dogs, but I always say that I’m afraid of dogs bigger than 10 pounds. Gracie is an exception to my rule. She is silly and kinda goofy and settles down quickly. She acts like a 3 year old so we do at least one walk a day. She gets along great with the dog we watch, but she doesn’t like big dogs who charge and bark at her. She ignores Monty even when he invades her space and stares at her. She has been barking a little more at people at the door but it’s not too bad. Obviously feels this is her home to protect." If you are interested in this gorgeous girl and would like to make her a part of your family, please fill out an online application right away at .arwob. We would love to find her a forever home of her own where she will get all the love she deserves as she enjoys her sunset years.
