In memory of Gracie 2009-2023

I am so sad with big tears in my eyes to say it was time to tell Gracie goodbye. We were so blessed to have had our sweet and special girl with us for thirteen years. She had friends from all the world, both human and animal. And no one was more special then those who threw her a stick, a ball, or a pine cone. Gracie was always ready to show you how the game was played.

Thank you Gracie for being a part of our lives.

Keep looking!
