Gracie, one of the dogs who came to symbolize how dogs bred for fighting can be rehabilitated has died. The namesake of Gracie’s Guardians, the 11-year-old Pit Bull was rescued from the horror of Michael Vick’s compound in 2007 and then went to live at Richmond Animal League. She was adopted by one of the organization’s board members and became a wonderful pet and member of the family. She enjoyed seven years of a loving home before she died, and her life was testament to the fact that love can heal even deep wounds.
