Hi Gracie girl! A very happy Dog of the Day to you! What a beautiful, sweet, life and people loving pup you are, Gracie; one beautiful blend of two amazing breeds (though that penchant for diving for rocks...all Lab...just ask my girl Star!)

How tragic, that you came to find yourself homeless following the MO floods. We are so grateful to all of those who help rescue lost and homeless animals such as you, following such disasters. And lucky girl you, it wasn't long after going into rescue that you found your forever family, and what a wonderful family itis, compete with doting humans to love on you, and an assortment of furry sibs as well! (Lily will come around with time, I'm sure! Who can resist your many charms?) And those pics of you posing so proudly beside your young girl...beyond heart melting! I think you have a friend for life in her, Gracie, and she in you!!!

How lucky you and your family were to find your way to one another, Gracie; you and your family were definitely meant to be! Out of tragedy, happiness, from loss, a family grows; that's your story, Gracie!

Enjoy your much deserved day of honor, sweetheart! I hope you and Lily and your Bulldog bro are all having a blast celebrating your "top dog" status, being spoiled rotten and loved to pieces! Thanks for the BIG smiles, sweetheart! Hugs and kisses to you beautiful Gracie!
