She Needs a Home: Meet Gracie

UPDATE: Gracie has been adopted. Congratulations to her new family.

Gracie was turned in because her owner wasn't able to get a handle on her thunderstorm fears, and now Grateful Golden's Rescue is searching for a permanent home for this golden retriever.

She is about 7 years old, but you'd never know it. She swims, loves to romp around with her 3-year-old foster brother, and she even likes cats.

Her foster parents own a pet shop, so Gracie is having a grand time going to work with them. The customers love her, and she always has a friendly hello for their furkids.

Gracie is spayed, on heartworm preventative medication and is making good progress learning to walk on a leash. Although she is thunderphobic, it is manageable, but her people will need to have some experience.
