Meet Kary Grace!


Hello everyone, my name is Kary Grace.

My story is a little long, so I hope you hang tight and enjoy the reading.

I don't remember too much of my beginnings, but it seems like I've been traveling most of my life. I was tired of that, as I saw a lot of doggies with families and I didn't have one. One day I approached a very nice lady because I was very hungry. She was not a dog person but felt sorry for me and took me in. She tried to find my owners but she couldn't so she tried to find me a forever home.

She took me to a dog park and met some nice people ( who are now my aunts and uncles) and when they heard about me, they immediately thought of my parents. My parents went to church and when they left they had a message to come meet me at the park. They just fell in love... well, who wouldn't... I'm adorable!!!!


The lady who had me was very good to me, but I had never gone to a doctor. I didn't think I needed one, I feel perfectly fine. My mom found a doctor open on a Sunday (that woman is persistent, I tell you!) and took me there. I was poked and prodded... I did not appreciate that, but they said it was for my own good. I guess I can live with that. The doctor thinks I'm about 8 months old...hmm I think that means I might have a birthday coming up! They said I'm healthy but not spayed, whatever that is... My mommy said that she will have they do that on me in the next couple of weeks. I hope it doesn't hurt much. They also put a thing around my neck that I'm not too fond of, it's attached to a chain that they use to walk with me...yuck!

Then it was the discussion of my name... I thought my name was Hey, that what everyone called me all my life. My dad was hung up on Carrie, my mom has some online friends with that name and explained to my dad they might be offended by having a puppy with their name, my daddy wouldn't bulge. So they negotiated to change the spelling and that's how I became Kary. My mom is so happy that I'm here, that the grace of God kept me healthy and that I came to their house at this point in their lives that she made my middle name Grace (of course, she tried that for first name, but you just heard that my daddy wouldn't bulge...LOL). I'm pretty smart, couple of times heard my name and now I know its me. I also already figured out that if they say the whole thing is because I'm somewhere they don't want me to be or doing something they don't want me to do... but it's so much fun mommy!!!!

My mommy also says that I have an older sister, River. She's been lost for a few days. My parents say I look a lot like her, although I am way more playful. But I don't' bark either, which makes mommy very happy. I think I understand. She's probably trying to see the world like I was... I'm tired of that life and rather know where I sleep and eat. She will be back as soon as she figures that out too. I'm hoping she comes back soon. It would be so neat to have an older sister to play with. I know my parents love me, but they're still very sad about my sister not being home. We're all going to stay in the living room for a little longer to see if she comes, paws down!!!! Maybe, I can sniff her and call her back home, who knows!

This place is like wonderland, OMG, my sister had so many toys. I'm trying not to break any of them, but can't make any promises. My mommy says she didn't like treats, but I do... They have so many, I'm having a blast. I found out that if they say sit and I do, they give you cookies around here, isn't that the greatest thing!!!! Cookies just for sitting, who knew! I also love to play dead. I lay on my back with my head all the way back like I'm sun bathing. It's just comfortable, I don't know why but it cracks my parents up.


Anyway, just wanted to introduce myself, and let you know that I have found a home. Would you do me a favor? Would you join your paws tonight and pray that my sister comes home soon? I want to see my parents happy and I know our family will not be complete until she comes back


Until next time,

Kary Grace!
