In Memory of Gracie

Gracie, estimated to be around 4 years old, was found on the streets of Stockton pregnant with 8 babies. Once she was rescued she gave birth to all 8 babies, but sadly 2 of them passed away. Shortly, all 6 of those puppies and Gracie were adopted. She lived with her new family for about 4 years, where she made many friends and memories. She passed away due to GDV in June of 2026, a condition common in big dogs, where the intestine flips which eventually cuts off their blood circulation. We will forever remember her as a great companion and friend.
