Looking for your one and only? So is Gracie. Gracie is a gorgeous 7-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.
