Gracie, the Dog of the Day
Name: Gracie
Age: Three and a half years old
Gender: Female Breed: Weimaraner
Home: Colorado, USA
 
   Gracie came into my life three years ago. We found her at Gander Mountain, a hunting store, where the breeder had a whole litter of puppies. I knew that she was the right one for me from the start. Gracie gets ear infections that are hard to control and get rid of. The first month we had Gracie, she also had to get stitches because a larger dog at the dog park bit her leg.

    Gracie and I go on walks very often, and she even gets to go on runs with my dad when he is up to it. Gracie has a huge appetite, eating Beneful dog food, treats, edible chews, and - when she can find one - socks. Gracie will run around with socks in her mouth and expect some one to chase her around, but I just take them from her mouth. Then she runs off and sits in the couch in the front room that she has officially claimed to be her own.

    I cannot imagine life without Gracie, and only having our twelve year old shetland sheepdog, and our ten year old yellow lab who thinks she is still a puppy. Gracie gets along well with our lab, but the sheltie does not like her. At night, Gracie takes up the whole queen size bed that I have. When she sleeps, she runs as if dreaming heavily. Gracie is my best friend.
