Hi … my name is Grady and here are some things you need to know about me:

I am a very, very shy guy.  I wish I could I talk and tell you about my early life so you could understand why I get so scared of things … and why I piddle on myself when I am really scared.  I was picked up wandering around scared and alone by some people in uniforms.  They took me to a place with lots of other dogs and cats.  It was loud and I was scared … and as it turned out, I was also sick with a respiratory infection.  It took a while, but I am well now and I am ready to start my new life … my happily-ever-after.  I want to be happy.  I want a family of my very own to love and feel secure with.  I want a family who will be patient with me and help me build my confidence and restore my trust in humans.  Could you be the person who will love me?
