Meet Gracie

Saving Great Animals lists Gracie as a female "Labrador Retriever / Staffordshire Bull Terrier" in Bellevue, Washington. She is 12 years old, which makes her a senior, though the listing says she is still a puppy in her heart and daily outlook. She is listed as a large dog.

Gracie does have a couple of health issues now that she is older: her joints are stiff and her tummy is easily upset. She can't walk that far anymore, and her eyes are getting an "old lady" look. She is on some medications that are described as relatively inexpensive. Gracie is spayed, microchipped and fully vaccinated.

The organization prefers to see her in a home without young kids, as her body is starting to get some aches and pains. Gracie is reported to be ok meeting other dogs on the leash, but she wants to have your home to herself, where she can soak up all the love. A home with a backyard would be magnificent, and her foster lives on a houseboat/barge where she gets plenty of fun outside time.

The listing calls her the best companion you could wish for, always smiling, tail wagging and full of curiosity. She is described as easy going and highly motivated by food as well as human affection. Gracie is reported to be always ready to give and receive attention, especially if belly rubs are offered.

She will happily lay around the house or accompany you to check out the neighborhood. Gracie is described as a terrific partner for errands, because she loves to ride in the car. This chonky girl is reported to love playing with balls and sticks, swimming and sunning herself in the yard. She also loves laying by the fire, eating yummy food and getting plenty of affection.

The organization hopes Gracie will one day find her forever home. Her adoption fee is $195.
