Gracie German Shepherd Dog Milton, PA

Hi I am Gracie. I am an elegant young lady who is learning that the world is not a big scary place.

I enjoy going for walks and jogging. New places kind of scare me, but after we walk a while, I start to relax. The more familiar I am with the area, the more relaxed I am, and the more I enjoy the walk or jog.

The people that pick me up and take me home for a couple of days at a time, from the kennel, are taking me to new places so I can learn that new places aren't that scary when I have my human with me.

When I get scared, I do try to run wherever I think I can hide. Before the people at 4 Paws Sake PA took me in, I was running loose as a stray for over a month. It took the people a lot of work to catch me, so the people taking care of me are very concerned that you have the ability and patience to keep me safe.

I would love to find a forever home of my own. Preferably one with no little ones with a person or couple who like to be active and go for walks and understand my fear issues and will help me through them.

I have met a lot of dogs on walks, and I'm always happy to greet them. In the home I visit, there's one dog that goes with us when we go for our walks, and he helps me relax even more. There's also a big puppy in the house that I'm not a big fan of because he's too much energy and doesn't always understand to play gentle. After all, I am only a dainty 49 lbs.

I’m beginning to show an interest in toys and my appetite has significantly improved since coming to the rescue.

I really enjoy sniffing on my walks, and some of the volunteers hide really good smelling treats for me that I like to find with my nose.

I’m up-to-date on my vaccines and I have been spayed also.

The rescue did my DNA test, and those results are also shared here in my profile with my pictures above.
