What a journey!

Gracey was found living in woods by herself at age 6 mos. Unsure why, but after finding her in a no-kill shelter locally, she came home with me about 3 yrs ago. Scared to death of men (including me), I feel strongly she came from a puppy mill. Slowly she and I began to gel over time, but not over night! She is today a sweet and happy girl, coming to get dad out of bed if I am not up by 7AM, loves her toys and backyard. She is a sweetheart! Just goes to show, give them the right environment and what happens is amazing! My 2d rescue and while I was sure to not ever be able to replace my sweet Rhodesian, Gracey is there! Sweet little girl!
