Gracie was truly the most amazing dog I’ve ever met. She'd do anything I ask, with wonderful, happy enthusiasm. Loved toys! She was an awesome SAR dog: She truly lived for the chance to do it. Incredible hunt drive. She was also very social; She'd run hard all day on a search and on a different day be just as happy to spend the entire day meeting new people at a SAR demo.
Her pedigree includes many famous Belgians; one of my favorites is her sire Ulhan du Musher (French Ring 3) who is described as producing dogs that are "kind and fast". (which also is a good description of Gracie and her offspring!)

"K9 Gracie is one of the rare gems in the SAR dog world. Gracie shows exceptional nerve strength and the ability to work odor in a concentrated, focused manner. She can go from interactions within a pack of multiple breeds of dogs; to concentrated, meticulous, work on odor with no need for a break in between.
I would recommend this dog to anyone looking for an all around exceptional working dog and sweet tempered, trusted, family member."
