Gracie *BONDED PAIR*

Meet Sparky and Gracie, a wonderfully mismatched but perfectly matched bonded pair looking for a home where they can stay together forever.

Sparky is a 15-year-old medium-sized Pitbull mix with the heart of a teddy bear. This gentle senior has truly mastered the art of the good life: peaceful walks, sunny spots outside, delicious meals, and lots of cuddles with his people. Though he’s a bigger boy, Sparky is incredibly soft and sweet. His foster family says one of his most charming habits is quietly walking over while they’re sitting on the couch and placing his head on their leg. That’s his polite way of asking for cuddle time—and once he does it, it’s pretty much impossible to resist joining him on the floor for snuggles. Sparky is housebroken, non-destructive, and wonderfully polite on leash. He enjoys his walks and will greet other dogs with a friendly sniff before moving along. These days his energy level is low, and he’s happiest curling up near the people and dogs he loves. Every once in a while he’ll even surprise everyone with a little burst of zoomies in the yard!

And then there’s Gracie, his adorable 7-year-old fluffy sidekick, likely a Havanese mix. Where Sparky is calm and steady, Gracie brings the sparkle and silliness. She’s a happy, playful little dog who seems to wake up each day excited to make friends and have fun. Gracie is incredibly friendly with people and dogs alike—her tail starts wagging the moment she meets someone new. She enjoys her walks, greets other dogs politely on leash, and loves to play. Stuffed toys are her absolute favorite. Her foster family says she’ll sometimes toss a toy up into the air, flip onto her back, and flail her legs around in pure goofy joy. Other times she’ll happily play on the floor for ages, giving playful growls and little barks that make everyone laugh. But as playful as she is, Gracie is also a champion cuddler. She loves curling up on the couch after playtime and soaking up affection. Sometimes she’ll be resting nearby, then suddenly lift her little head just to give her foster a sweet lick on the chin. Her foster family describes her as playful, friendly, loving, sweet, and happy—and they say they will miss both the play sessions and the cuddles the most.

Together, Sparky and Gracie make a beautiful pair. They balance each other perfectly—Sparky’s calm, gentle presence paired with Gracie’s playful spirit. Sparky especially relies on Gracie for comfort, and he becomes anxious when separated from her, so they must be adopted together.

He’s simply a senior dog who deserves comfort, kindness, and a family to love for however many happy days lie ahead.
