In May, 2025, we received a request from a man to take in a litter of pups that his female dog had delivered. We not only took those pups in, we also arraigned for the owner to have his dog spay and at no cost to him. But he never took advantage of that offer nor did he contact us until his dog had a second litter just four months after the first litter. One condition to us taking in this  second litter was that Scott Bennett would personally take the mom of the two litters to the vet to have her spay. From the second litter comes Grazie.

When looking at both Grazie and her sister Gilda, you may think that they're identical twins, Grazie, just as her sister, is a very fun-loving, very playful and personable pup. She is very well socialized towards people and with proper training, will make a great addition into just about any home. 

Grazie will have received 2/3 of her first-year "puppy" vaccines by Oct. Oct. 10 and will still have her final vaccine due on October 31st. She has already been de-wormed, treated against parasites and started on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. She's still too young to receive her rabies vaccine and her adopter should obtain that after she turns 3 months old. Her adopter will have to agree to having Grazie spay once she reaches 6 months of age and provide verification of such to our rescue. Grazie will require all of her basic training.
