Way to go Gracie!!!

I have a puppymill rescue who was completely clueless about any type of toy when we first adopted her. To see her play fetch now and think about how she was then makes me tear up. It's so funny you mention Gracie bringing things back to her cubby hole. Once Lane finally started playing with toys, she would do this with any toy she managed to come across on the ground. She'd stack them all up in her favorite bed and then sometimes lay beside them.

I always say that Lane learned by watching Rory, and it sounds like Gracie learned by watching Adie. I really share in your joy! Oh, and I'm super impressed Gracie is already able to beat Adie out for the toys sometimes. I'd say 1 out of 100 times Lane gets the toy ahead of Rory, but thankfully they have their own ball preferences for fetch time which makes things easier!
