Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Little miss Penny showed up at a kind couple's house in the country, starved and scared. Every morning and evening they put out a can of Pedigree and she came to eat regularly. She gained weight and adopted their yard as her own, but was too leary to be handled. Ultimately, after six weeks and her being clipped by a car, we managed to trap her. Now that she is no longer on the lam, she is soooo cute and goofy and playful and affectionate. She loves belly rubs and plays fetch sort of. This girl can only go to experienced doggy parents because of her history as a dog on the run. She will make a wonderful pet, but we want to make sure she is never accidentally let loose. The little tubby girl weighs 25-30 pounds and is probably just a year old (DOB estimated Oct. 2011). If you are the person/family for little Penny, please contact Bev at 804-248-3042 or crazydoglady64@aol.com.
**Her favorite dog in the world is Walker the hound, so if you want a ridiculously cute pair, look him up too.
