Hellooooooooooooooooo (said with long hound bray)!  My name is Autumn Daisy, but most people call me Gracie.  I am a three-year-old, spayed female coonhound mix!  My pictures make me look huge but I'm actually more medium sized, weighing in at 35 pounds.  I am up to date on shots, heartworm negative, and ready to gooooooo!

 

I ended up with the wonderful people at Tired Dog Rescue after I spent a duration of time at Jackson County Animal Shelter without any interest (insert sad hound face here).  I have been patiently waiting for my forever home but seem to keep getting overlooked for some reason.  I am not a fluffy doodle, but I have SO much love to give!  I do have a lot of energy and would love an owner that is ready to have a partner to take hiking, running, and adventuring.  I am a true hound and love to follow scents.  I need an owner that understands how much the nose leads a hound and is ready to keep me from getting myself in trouble!  

 

I am great with kids and really love any humans!  I love attention and turn into quite the cuddle bug!  I am kennel trained and love to play with other dogs!  Frolicking and sprinting around in the backyard is one of my favorite activities!  

 

Speaking of yard - I do need a very secure yard - this is a must.  At least a six-foot fence with nothing for me to climb to get over the fence (the nose makes me do it, I swear!  There are squirrels out there!).  I also learned how to dig so I will need an owner that is willing to supervise me in the yard until I learn that that behavior is not acceptable and could lead to an escape (again....the squirrels just smell so good out there!)  I know I can learn!  As long as I'm secure and given daily activity, I am a happy, happy girl!  

 

I do need a home without cats.  I really like squirrels, and chasing squirrels is so much fun for me.  Cats really remind me of those pesky squirrels, and I just can't help myself!  

 

I had a dream the other night that my new human trained me to be a tracking dog!  We learned to find scents and we took so many adventures into the woods together!  I woke up to a rerun of Sherlock Holmes on the TV and decided that I just need to be a Detective!  Special Detective Gracie!  How fun would that be??!  Let's find all the things!!  Let's solve all the crimes!!  

 

I have been waiting for so long for someone to come along and think I am just the perfect dog.  I KNOW I am but now I just need a human to see that and make me a part of a family.  I've always dreamed of having my own humans!  Someone that adores hounds and knows their behavior and quirks would be ideal but I'm willing to show you the ropes as well and make you a fan of the HOUNDS!
