Welcome to my page! I have been working hard on it and it's finally finished. Biography My journey into this world began on November 7, 1999. I was born in a kennel in Mississippi. A little before Christmas my owners took me out to Uncle Charlie's Flea Market in Killen, Alabama and that's where I met my daddy. He and Grandmommy Laura were looking for a Christmas present for my mama because she had been asking him for a cute little dog. He saw me and picked me because I was small, black, adorable, and the only girl left in the litter. My daddy came back to get me about two days before Christmas and I had to stay at my Grandmommy Laura's house because I was going to be a surprise. And a surprise I sure was! On Christmas morning my mama thought she had opened all her presents. Then my daddy told her that he had one more present he had to go and get from the basement. He brought me up in a wrapped box and my mama had no idea what it was. When she opened the lid, she was so shocked to see me sitting inside! My mama loved me right away. She thought I was a precious black fuzz ball. She had already picked out my name, so it was right then that I became Gracie Trapp. Things I Like Favorite foods: scrambled eggs and ice cream (not mixed together, though) Favorite toy: my bug Favorite activities: going for a ride, going for a walk, sunbathing, chewing on rawhides, playing with my toys My friends: Binky, Maggie, McKenzie, Marlie, Scooter, Aubie, Puddles, Remington, Casey, Callie, and Sophie (Be sure to check them out in the near future on my friends page.)
