Gracie, after spending four months at a vet hospital undergoing surgery and rehabilitation, has found her best friend in Troy.  She and Troy live in Las Vegas and he reports that she's shown  great dedication to him despite her long stay in a kennel.  Having experienced all the emotional ups and downs of Gracie's treatment, we were both sad to see her leave and delighted that she found her forever home.  We couldn't have asked for a better Christmas present for Gracie.
