Adoption

If you’re in California, Southern Nevada or even Western Arizona and possibly in a position to adopt a small, wonderful dog or you know someone who might be, please read…
A friend of mine is fostering this poor little pooch name Gracie. Gracie was going to be put down, but Catherine stepped up and took Gracie home to foster her to avoid the unthinkable. Catherine has had Gracie for about a month, but she’s just not in a position to be able to keep her. So we really need to find Gracie a permanent home!
The adoption would be through San Luis Obispo Animal Shelter in California. The cost is $95 which includes spay, initial vaccination series with rabies, microchip and a collar with ID tag.
Here is some info that Catherine included about Gracie:
“She is somewhere between that age of 4-6, maybe even 7. She was categorized as a Norfolk Terrier mix but could definitely be something else. She loves to cuddle, go for walks, be outside and lay on the couch. She adores people, once she has gained your trust. Gracie is housebroken/crate trained and will cuddle in her crate when her family has left for the day. At times, I forget she is here because she is so very quiet. She has never barked but may whine to get your attention and a lap cuddle. Gracie was brought into the shelter extremely fearful and covered in dirt, hair mats and other filth. With a little extra care, she has blossomed into a lovely dog.She is in search of a loving family and hopes to find her forever home.”
If you are interested in adopting her, please e-mail Catherine at catherine.becker3@yahoo.com

She is absolutely gorgeous. I hope she finds a home. Would you be able to keep us updated on her situation please Chad? If I lived in the US I would take her straight away

Since I live in Europe I cannot take her, but living in US I would seriously consider it.

I really hope people are contacting Catherine… Gracie is so cute. I already have four dogs myself so I am unable to adopt her. Can you please keep us updated on Gracie?

Thanks for your comments. Unfortunately, no one has contacted me about Gracie. We are hoping she will find her forever home.

I don’t live in the area however I’m interested in knowing if Gracie has found a home. If she has not, I will gladly cross-post her on my facebook account. She is sooo adorable I wouldn’t mind having her for myself however I live in Ohio with two dobies.

Is there a way that we can donate money to your cause Catherine? I can’t adopt her (I have a Dobe, a Presa, and a cat) but I’d like to donate $25 to help you out….

Hey everyone, I believe Gracie was adopted but I’m not sure. I’ve sent Catherine a few messages to get an update and she hasn’t responded. I’m hoping for an update soon!

I especially love adopting, we adopted a cute little chihuahua, dachsund mix, which i think is called a chiweenie or something like that, but i think that for a few years people should like only adopt animals, because buying them from breeders and stores is basically leaving the animals in shelters to die, and we did some research, if our Bentley (the chiweenie) had stayed at the shelter one more day than we had adopted him he would have died. I love the adoption fund, and i do live in that area but my mother thinks one dog is enough at a time.
