GRACIE - PIT BULL TERRIER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 300. *This animal is a part of our “Seniors for Seniors” program where we offer senior adopters an opportunity to adopt an eligible pet at a discounted fee.* Meet Gracie! This sweet little peanut may need slow introductions and can be a bit growly at first, but with patience, her gentle side shines through. She enjoys soft pets, though she doesn’t actively seek out affection. Gracie has the cutest soft howl to let you know when she’s ready to go outside, and she absolutely loves her daily walk—just one trip around the block is perfect for her. She prefers a quiet home with someone who's around most of the time. While she may go into her crate a bit reluctantly, she settles down quietly once inside. Gracie rides well in the car and will calmly gaze out the backseat window. She mostly ignores cats but may show the occasional flicker of curiosity. With her calm presence and sweet quirks, Gracie is looking for someone who understands her pace and will give her the safe, cozy life she deserves. Adopting a senior dog is like getting a vintage car – it comes with character, a few extra quirks, and might need a bit more maintenance. Expect occasional tune ups at the vet for oil changes (aka meds), and embrace the fact that those 'normal lumps and bumps' are just part of the well-earned charm package! Ruff Start will share all known health information with adopters and rec ommendations to keep your senior dog in top shape. Gracie is from a local impound. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.
