Description:
Our beautiful girl Penny has been waiting for her forever home for over a year now. Could you give Penny her “happy ever after?” Penny loves both receiving and giving affectionate. She loves being with her people and cuddling with them. One of Penny’s very favorite things is being on the receiving end of lots of petting and body scratches. She’s a “leaner” and so very sweetly will lean into you and relax while you’re petting her. Penny loves running around in the backyard at her foster home, going for walks, chewing on her chew bones, and playing with her toys (this girl REALLY loves to play). She does get excited when playing and children may be best who are steady on their feet. As much as Penny loves being outside, we believe she would love activities like hiking and camping or other outdoor physical activities with her family. When it comes to training, Penny is the trifecta. She loves treats, she’s intelligent, and she’s eager to please. She’s very intelligent and eager and could easily excel at trick training (which is always fun!) Since coming to TFP, Penny and her foster mom have participated in private training sessions so Penny has down the basics. Penny does seem to do better with male dogs and we believe Penny would do best in a home where dog siblings are male. Currently, she lives with a male foster doggy sibling and they do very well together. Penny has shown she can be selective with female dogs. Penny may initially bark at people she doesn’t know; however, once introductions are made, everyone is her friend especially when they shower her with lots of petting (as mentioned, one of Penny’s favorite things). After coming to TFP, Penny and her foster mom had the opportunity to work one-on-one with a trainer and Penny has mastered her basic skills. Penny is crate trained and has THE best crate manners. She is also completely housebroken.
