Meet Gracie!

Recently Save-A-Pet got a call about a dog who had been tied to a telephone pole and beaten. A homeless man had her there, hitting and kicking her, while she had no way to escape. A passerby saw what was happening, stepped in, and fought him off to save her. That moment is the reason she’s still here.

Now she has a name. Gracie. When she arrived, all you could see were her bones. So thin it hurts to look at. Her body tells the story of neglect, hunger, and pain. But it’s her eyes that stay with you. Confused. Exhausted. Still searching for someone to be kind to her.

We will never understand how someone could do this to her. How a dog so innocent could endure so much cruelty. But we do know this. Her story is not over. Gracie is safe now. She will never be tied to a pole again.She will never be someone’s punching bag again. She will learn what it feels like to be touched gently, to be fed every single day, to finally rest without fear.

Right now she needs time. She needs care. She needs all of us to show her that the world can still be good. We will be her voice. We will be her second chance!

Save-A-Pet is a 501c3 no-kill shelter and have rescued and re-homed over 40,000 companion animals. We rely solely on donations. Save-A-Pet is located in the heart of Long Island in Port Jefferson Station. We have a low-cost vaccination and spay/neuter clinic. At Save-A-Pet’s Long Island animal shelter, we believe it is our moral responsibility to protect and improve the lives of abused, abandoned, and homeless cats and dogs, and to place them in loving permanent homes. We provide spay and neuter services for Long Island feral cats and any necessary medical care for pets. We work diligently to educate the public, especially children, on the importance of pet sterilization, responsible pet ownership and the humane treatment of animals.

If you are looking to adopt a pet, please view the dogs and cats at our Long Island adoption shelter and then fill out our online adoption application at saveapetusa.org
