Grace is a beautiful, sturdy, and incredibly smart 3-year-old girl! Her perky ears are like little bat wings, and she absolutely loves a good scratch. Grace has a lot of energy but is happy to nap most of the day during work hours. She was an excellent mom to her 10 puppies and is now ready to find her own forever home. She knows how to sit and lie down, and is completely potty and crate trained. Grace loves her crate and often naps in it voluntarily, finding it a safe space where she happily sleeps every night. She's currently working on rolling over, shaking hands, "down," and becoming more zen about seeing squirrels on walks. Grace is very strong, so please be aware that for the first few walks, no AirPods will be allowed, as she'll require your full attention. She lives with her foster parents and has no experience with children or other pets. One of her fosters works from home, and Grace enjoys her company during the day. Her other foster travels for work, and Grace does notice when she's gone, showing she's a dog who bonds deeply with her people. She was raised by an unsheltered person, which wasn't always easy, and she does show some signs of trauma that she's working through with the help of her fosters. Grace has a difficult time when initially meeting men but has proven she can move past this after an introduction.
