Pit Bull Terrier and American Staffordshire Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Citrus Heights, California

WHAT IS YOUR NAME?
Gracie

ARE YOU A BOY OR A GIRL?
I am a girl.

HOW OLD ARE YOU?
We think I was born in early 2020.

WHAT BREED ARE YOU?
I am a perfect Pit Bull mix.

HOW MUCH DO YOU WEIGH?
65 pounds

WHAT DO YOU LOOK LIKE?
I am gorgeous, if I do say so myself. I have a tan brindle coat with a big white chest patch and a fancy white stripe right down the middle of my face. I have the best little underbite too, just to round out the perfection!

WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO EAT?
I am not picky! You want me to eat it, I will oblige!

WHAT KIND OF PERSONALITY DO YOU HAVE?
I am such a wiggle butt with a happy tail! I am so joyous and full of life. I love all the people that I have met. I always have a smile on my face, and I’m so full of love that I like to spread it around. When it’s time to settle down, I love to snuggle next to my person.

DESCRIBE YOUR PERFECT DAY:
Food, walk, toys, nylabones and spending time with my people!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TOY?
I love all toys! I also love to play tug with any human who is willing!

DO YOU KNOW ANY TRICKS?
I know “sit” and “down.” I’m learning “leave it,” too. I’m a clever girl!

WHAT SCARES YOU?
So far, I am not afraid of anything.

HAVE YOU BEEN AROUND CHILDREN?
I have not been around children, but it might be best for me to stick with older kids.

DO YOU LIKE CATS?
I have not been around cats. I do like a good chase, so cats might not be the best fit.

HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT OTHER DOGS?
I’ve met my foster dog brother, and I love him, but I can be dog selective. A canine companion in my forever home might be fun if we do it right. Please set me up for success with slow introductions!

IF YOU COULD BE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, WHERE WOULD IT BE?
I love hanging out with my foster mom, dad, and foster dog brother.

HOW IS YOUR HEALTH?
I am doing great! No issues to report!

WHO DO YOU LIVE WITH IN YOUR FOSTER HOME AND WHO IS YOUR CLOSEST COMPANION?
I live with my foster mom, dad, and two foster dog brothers. I love my people and enjoy spending time with them inside the house and outside. I love to hang out with one of my foster dog brothers…we have so much fun!

WHERE DO YOU HANG OUT WHEN YOU ARE HOME ALONE?
I hang out in my crate.

WHERE DO YOU SLEEP?
I sleep in my crate.

DO YOU LIKE WALKING ON A LEASH?
I love going for walks and sniffing all the great smells. There's nothing quite like a "sniffari" to explore the world.

DO YOU HAVE ANY “NOT SO GREAT” HABITS THAT WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT?
I’m not sure I would consider it a “not so great habit,” but foster mom said I should tell you that I chase the backyard squirrels a lot. I am just keeping the humans safe from those little devils!

ARE YOU HOUSE TRAINED (DO YOU GO POTTY OUTSIDE)?
I am! Just let me know where you want me to go!

DO YOU LIKE WATER?
I’m not too fond of water.

WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT YOUR FOSTER FAMILY?
Snuggles, food and a canine foster brother to play with! What else would a girl need?

IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO TELL YOUR FUTURE ADOPTER?
I am a middle aged gal with so much love to give. I would love to meet you and share the rest of my amazing life with you. I think we will have the BEST time together!
