More: Although Gracie looks as if she exudes grace and elegance, she is actually the clumsiest little pup I’ve ever had. She was given her name after frolicking around the yard chasing a butterfly and ran straight into the side of the house, where I called out… “well that was Graceful” and it just stuck. She was a rescue pup and had been through a traumatic 7 months before coming to me. We worked on her little quirks and 12 years later she is and will always be the best dog I could ever ask for. She loves to swim, hike, chase kitties, get pets at breweries and receive belly rubs from anyone that is near. Gracie is the little dog that has a big heart!
