Description:
Graceland is a happy, sweet, and playful little lady. Her tail is always wagging and she does a happy dance when she's excited. She loves people and follows me everywhere. She does get a little anxious when she can't find someone so she will go room-to-room to make sure she knows where everyone is.

She is getting treated for heartworms so her physical activity is limited, but once her treatment is complete she would love to go for daily walks, chase squirrels in the yard, and play until she passes out. Anything she can do with her people would make her happy. She's good at occupying herself during the day while I'm working by chewing on a bone or looking out the window. She's learning to not be so nosey when people are eating, but she's a good listener and takes correction well. She gives a few barks when she sees a dog outside and she'll barks if she's bored and wants to play, but other than that she's pretty quiet.

She's the perfect size for someone who doesn't want a small dog, but a medium dog is too big. She's the sweetest petite little girl who can't wait to find a forever family who will give her all of the attention she deserves!

* I did test positive for heartworm and will be receiving treatment provided by MARS to live a long healthy life.

*A dog with Heartworms is not directly contagious to other animals. Heartworms are transmitted by an infected mosquito.

*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!

Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.

*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.

Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.
