Gracie is a very well rounded, sweet little girl. She's done an amazing job this past week with her training as the tryouts for the greyhound training team started. She held up fantastically with all of the different people handling her. She is truly on point with what is expected of her. Her weakest command has been stay but she's catching on and each day she does better and better. She gets along really well with the other greyhounds, but care is being taken with her fascination with the tiny dogs for now. Gracie is very correctable and listens great to assertiveness. Her handler believes she has it in her to succeed in more advanced training. She adjusts well to any environment. Gracie really enjoys the outdoor, exploring the smells and her surroundings. She walks well and loves exercise. She also enjoys the cool air of the dorm! She uses her kennel as her spot to relax, but also enjoys roaming the dorm and gets plenty of loving and training practice from all the inmates. Though not really interested in toys, she loves to dig into a Kong with treats. She's very food-motivated, which also encourages her to train and please more! This girl's sweetness and prancing little demeanor catches everyone's attention and their hearts.
