About Gracie
Gracie
is an 7-year old female brown dog. She started life in Chapel Hill, North
Carolina, where she ran the streets and got into no end of trouble. Rescued by
Jennifer, Gracie earned the title of 'The Great Gracinee' for her ability to dig,
squirm, and wiggle her way out of the backyard. She has since given up the life
of crime for the more gentle persuits of sleeping all day, barking at other dogs,
and taking daily constitutionals with her people.
Gracie is a dog. She loves doing puppy stuff. You just wouldn't understand.
email address: Gracie is a luddite when it comes to technology. She prefers if you'd just stop by for a chat.
