Gracie Got Adopted!
Gracie has been adopted! On August 18th, 2010 Gracie went home with her new mom Deb!
Deb had kindly adopted an elderly Miniature Schnauzer from our rescue before and, sadly, her beloved pet passed away recently. Deb is a lover of Miniature Schnauzer and when she was ready to bring another dog into her home, she came back to our rescue to adopt her next furry friend!
That furry friend turned out to be Gracie! Deb took Gracie home on 8/18/2010 and so far everything seems to be working out fine for them! Gracie has a dog friend in her new home (Deb has another Miniature Schnauzer at home) to play with, a nice yard to romp in, & is getting lots of love from her new family!
Thanks, Deb, for adopting another dog from us and for giving Gracie a wonderful forever home!
Jack at Chuck & Don’s
Well, Jack has once again proven that he can manage to get spoiled by anybody, anywhere. He was happy to hang out and talk and get petted by as many people as possible. One particular lady even let him lay down on top of a cooler so he wouldn’t be hot. Nooo…not spoiled at all. He turned on the charm practically batted those eyes of his. Not that he doesn’t deserve all the attention. He is absolutely fabulous!
Lady
Lady asked me to post a picture of her before the big event at Chuck and Don’s today. She wanted to make sure that everyone could recognize her and come over and say hi. She has been enjoying her time with her foster brothers playing, running and lounging. She is a cuddly girl and loves to be close to her foster humans and has adapted to the family routine nicely. Come and see Lady today from 11-1 at Chuck and Don’s to learn more about her! 
Gracie is ready to be adopted!
Gracie with a stuff toy
Gracie has healed up nicely after being spayed & having her teeth cleaned several weeks ago. You’d never know she’d had majored surgery at all from the way she is playing with toys, running around in the yard, and trying to get someone in the family to pet her. She’s a very very active little dog with lots of energy packed into her little 13 pound body!
Gracie is a very cute & funny little dog. If someone comes to the door, she barks like a dog little watch dog should but she’s not aggressive at all. She’s still shy around strangers when they come in the house but she’s gotten better as we’ve worked with her.
Gracie walks well on a leash & likes to go for walks. She’s great with other dogs & cats as long as they don’t bother her when she’s in her kennel. If they do, she barks at them. She likes her privacy, as most of us do at times.
Gracie loves to chew on Nylabones & she’s learning to play with plush toys. She’s not much into playing with toys with humans or other dogs yet but I’m sure that will come in time as she continues adjusting to being a pet dog rather than a breeder dog. I think she’d learn how to play faster if there was another dog in the house for her to learn from. My own dog, Carl (a former puppy-mill dog) really never learned to play with toys with other dogs or people, and so she hasn’t had an example to learn from yet.
I believe Gracie is ready to be adopted into a new home that will give her lots of love and attention! Gracie is a great little dog who has lots of love to give once she gets to know you & she’s ready to share that love with someone in her new, forever home. If you want a spunky little lady to share your life with, Gracie is the dog for you!
Coaley’s Cabin Bound
My former foster, Coaley, has been staying with us for a couple weeks while her mommy is in California visiting with friends. Just like last summer, she got to go to the cabin with us. The extra little buddy was no trouble at all. She was all about getting hugs and giving kisses to the nieces. She followed me around like a shadow but was a free spirit while outside. So nice to have her back for a short while :-)
