*** Bonded Pair--I must be adopted with my BFF Gabby ***Bonded Pair — I must be adopted with my BFF Gabby!Hello, I`m Gracie, an eight-year-old toy poodle with a big heart, expressive little face, and a serious appreciation for the finer things in life: fluffy beds, cozy blankets, and being as close to my favorite human as physically possible. My best friend Gabby and I were found together and spent three months at Animal Ark before heading into foster care. We`re a bonded pair, and our next adventure must be together!I`m a sensitive soul who may need a little time to feel comfortable with new people. Bring snacks, though, and we can probably speed up the friendship process! Once I know you`re safe, you`ll discover that I`m an exceptionally loving companion. I like to follow my person from room to room, curl up beside them, and gently paw for pets until they remind me that I`ve had enough.I`ve got plenty of personality packed into my little body. My facial expressions can make you laugh one minute and melt your heart the next. And when I`m really relaxed? I sometimes fall asleep with my little tongue hanging out the side of my mouth. It`s pretty adorable, if I do say so myself!I`m not much for toys, fetch, or long walks. I`d much rather enjoy a leisurely day of snuggling and napping. I`m a delicate girl who can be startled by unexpected bumps or sudden touches, so I`ll thrive with someone patient and gentle who respects my sensitive nature. Grooming can make me nervous, too, so I`ll need a gentle hand.As cute as I am, I do have a bossy side! Sometimes I get a little cranky if Gabby takes up too much of my bed or if someone else wants to be with my favorite person when I`m already snuggled up with them. I`m not above letting my feelings be known. I need a family who will gently remind me that behavior is not allowed rather than let me run the show. Luckily, Gabby is a happy-go-lucky girl who generally lets me have my little opinions.I`m still working on perfecting my potty-training skills. I`m making good progress with training pads, although I still have an occasional accident. I`ll do best with a patient family who can keep me on a routine. Gabby and I are like twin sisters with very different personalities. She brings the carefree fun, and I bring the cuddles. If you have room in your heart and home for both of us, submit an adoption application to arrange a meet-and-greet. I can`t wait to find my forever family with my best friend by my side!
