AMARILLO, Texas (KAMR/KCIT) – Gracie’s Project is a local nonprofit that began when a dog named Gracie was found. Gracie was a mom who was malnourished and facing euthanasia; she passed, but the nonprofit is living on and continuing its mission.
“We help animals here in the Panhandle. As many people know, we have an issue here with, you know, a lot of strays, a lot of ones that get in the shelter, you know, on the euthanasia list, those are the ones that we concentrate on,” added Gracie’s Project Stacia Merritt, Gracie’s Project Public Relations Committee. “You know, we concentrate on the ones that can’t help themselves, that have got themselves in a position that they can’t get out of, unfortunately.”
Gracie’s Project is a no-kill shelter, and they are currently taking care of over 200 dogs.

“Getting them out and getting them transported or finding their forever is a process. We don’t just let anybody adopt from us. We do our due diligence and do a home check and make sure that everybody fits in the home,” added Merritt. “If you have current animals, you know, we have to make sure that you’re bringing somebody in that’s going to be just as loved as your current ones.”…
