About this Dog
Animal Profile: Meet Gracie! In April we were contacted by Furry Freight about a mama German Shepherd who had just given birth to ten tiny puppies in Amarillo Animal Services high-kill shelter. One of the puppies did not make it and the entire family was facing euthanasia when we came up with a plan. Our rescue partner in Texas agreed to take the family into foster care until they were ready to travel. Her foster home in Texas reports that Gracie has been a wonderful mom to her puppies and is confident, polite, but not outwardly demonstrative until she has trust in you. She walks well on leash, kept her puppy area clean, and is not interested (yet) in toys but likes liver, cottage cheese and peanut butter. Gracie did well around strange dogs and people for her vet visit; she tested positive for two tick-borne diseases (both treatable and she will make a full recovery) and will be joining us in foster care on June 13. We will share more info as we get to know her. Foster Update: Gracie is making great strides in her foster home here in Seattle. She is a sweet girl who loves attention and pets! She walks well on leash and is crate and potty trained, though doesn't love to be home alone for long periods, so a work from home situation might be ideal for Gracie. She is a little nervous with initial introductions and is naturally cautious of people, but once she is comfortable she is loving and gentle. She loves getting attention and does well with positive affirmation. Gracie is also cautious with dogs but after slow introduction with my resident dog she has been very friendly with and content around her. She gives my dog licks, likes to be go on walks with her, and likes having her bed next to her while they relax in the family room. She has also gotten comfortable with the resident cat walking around while she relaxes in her dog bed. Gracie is an old soul and is still finding her playful side. She doesn’t seem interested in playing ball or with chew toys but she has a stuffy toys that she likes to cuddle with. Gracie is a beautiful dog with the most emotive eyes.

Adopt Gracie and Receive Gracie's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Gracie's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Gracie's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Gracie, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Gracie's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Gracie was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Gracie’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Gracie’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Gracie’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
