Many heartfelt condolences on the loss of your Gracie. She looks like a sweetheart. I've had seven boxers and have never had one that wasn't the best dog I ever had. Such a loyal and loving breed. I sure hope you'll get another one. Just remember, they're puppies until they hit 8 or so, but I'm sure you know that!!
