Gracie. Though I named you Grace because you were a sweet not-so-graceful pup, your unending devotion and companionship showed that truly you were as full of grace as your name implied. Gentle and patient, but old before your time thanks to those hips and back -- and yet you sure were fast and determined when it was time to eat! You weren't like other dogs -- you didn't like to run and chase and fetch (there was that rat you caught mid-air, though). You were my Gracie, and you were happiest when you could just curl up with me and relax. You loved to be loved. And Gracie, I loved you so much. Always will. I miss you and your soft, soft ears, baby girl.
