Description
Grace and her siblings - Goofy, Goose, and Ginger - were confiscated from a puppy mill operation. They are all emaciated and in need of positive interaction. The shelter that confiscated this little family knew that these dogs would need extra support in order to find their forever homes. When MAGSR got the call to take them in, we started putting plans in place to meet their needs.
Although they have survived a horrible situation, Grace and her siblings are very lovable dogs. Definitely a little skittish, these dogs will excel with patience, leadership, and positive experiences. Grace is a friendly girl who appreciates gentle handling. She leans in for affection and has easily won over the hearts of our volunteers. We look forward to getting to know Grace over the next few weeks. If she sounds like a good match for your family, ask to meet her.
Updates
Grace is the definition of a sweetheart and is looking for a home to shower her with love, attention and patience as she gets used to life in a house. Grace shows a lot of puppy behaviors and is diligently working on her house breaking, learning not to jump on people or chew on inappropriate things. She is skittish around sudden movements and loud noises that are unfamiliar to her; her new parents will need to continue to work on these things with her. She is always on the lookout for a treat so guard your pockets, but she learns quickly when rewarded with them! She has no issue being in her crate and sleeps silently through the night.
Grace had a confident building weekend!! Grace initiated play with her foster brother Cane! This was huge as he's been trying to get her to play, they ran around the backyard but she came back to check in with her foster mom a few times. She went with her foster family to the park for a 2 mile walk and Grace was a champ. Her leash manners were great- she is very attentive to her handler. Grace would love to have a playmate in her new home. Grace is ready and just waiting for a family to shower her with love and training.
