HOF WTCH Legends StarN Say GNite Gracie AFTDs BN RN DNA-VP (GRACIE)

SPAYED

11/13/07 - 1/23/2017

Unfortunately Gracie ate two things (solid objects unidentifiable by the ultrasound vet or two other vets ). She had surgery to remove these but they had done their damage already and made Gracie very ill. We have no idea why she ate these two things (Gracie was not one to consume anything on the ground nonedible). We have no idea where those items came from. Our shop door is kept closed, and our yard is neat and tidy and covered in grass. We do irrigate and that's the only way we know of that these items could have come into our yard. I stilll have these two items in a baggy and to date no one has been able to identify these items. Gracie was timely treated by two different vets, put on applicable meds, iv'd, and surgery was done immediately after the ultrasound. We were all heartbroken to lose Gracie at such a young age, but she simply was unable to recover from the damage done.

ASCA year 6/1/2014 to 5/31/2015: Shelby & Gracie earned the 500 club award for junior handling - they are also #1 working junior (two scores of 122!) and All-Around Junior (also picking up the BN and RN titles)

Gracie is a multi-WTCH producer (5 by our HOF Edi) with pups also titled in multiple venues

Linda Barhite of Oxbow Aussies offered us Gracie back after the 2010 ASCA Nationals. Linda wasn't too fond of heat cycles, and none of us wanted Gracie spayed. We bought Gracie back, and she returned to us on 11/6/10. Steve finished up Gracie's WTCH and put AFTDs on her. Gracie took Shelby to the 500 club and to win the prestigious Junior Achievement award.

Gracie gave us 8 pups by our HOF WTCH Edi. We have our Garth by Gracie x Edi. VISIT GARTH to see all of Gracie's titled offspring - WTCHs/HTCH/UD/PDCH/advanced/merits, agility, obedience and one tracking certified ... INCREDIBLE LITTER AND AWESOME OWNERS!
