Here's what the humans have to say about me:
What is your name? PENNY
Are you a girl or a boy? I am a lady
How old are you? About 5
What breed are you? Pitty-mix
How much do you weigh? About 50lbs
What do you look like? I am the cutest copper/penny color with white markings and front flopping ears
What do you like to eat? I love snacks and treats! I can be a little picky about kibble but throw a snack in there and I will eat it up!
What kind of personality do you have? I am the sweetest little girl. I am a people pleaser and love to be with you whether its hanging out on the couch or hiking up a trail. I'll pretty much follow your lead. I can be pretty playful with other dogs once we are friends, and can definitely get the zoomies if you play for a while.
Describe your perfect day: My perfect day would be waking up next to you, hopping out of bed and going for a walk. Maybe go someplace new or a favorite place like a river or hike or just a chill restaurant and relax. Or hang out at home and play in the back yard. I love going out and meeting new people – I am very friendly and well behaved.
What is your favorite toy? I love balls when I am in a playful mood but I'd rather just play with you one or one or a brother or sister doggo.
Do you know any tricks? OH, I know ALL the tricks!! I can sit, lay, stay, leave it, wait, shake, roll, and speak. I will usually wait for your permission to hop on furniture (couch or bed) and I am very good at night in a crate (if I need to be).
What scares you? Some times noises startle me but I would say I dont know much that scares me.
Have you been around children? Do you like them? I have pretty briefly been around kids (4+) and they are great! But I have not spent much time around them.
Do you like cats? I have not been formally introduced to a cat but the ones I have seen at a distance remind me of squirrels and I may be eager to chase one.
How do you feel about other dogs? I like other dogs as I have a slow introduction. I get along great with my foster brother dogs and I am pretty much passive when walking by other dogs but don’t always get along with dogs one on one.
If you could be anywhere in the world, where would it be? Literally anywhere with you! I am just happy to be by my besties side.
How is your health? I think I am as healthy as it gets! I did not come to the rescue with any health concerns.
Who do you live with your foster home and who is your closest companion? I live with my foster mom and grandma and 2 foster doggo brothers. But I am closest to my moms boyfriend who I only see a few days a week. When I do see him I don’t leave his side.
Where do you hang out when you are home alone? I like rest on the bed or the couch or in my crate if I’m sent there.
Where do you sleep? I sleep in my crate right now unless I am not sleeping at home but I do love the bed, if I could cuddle all night with you I would.
Do you like walking on a leash? I do! And I’m good too, with a little more work I could easily heal on a regular but right now I am known to pull a little when I’m excited.
Do you have any "not-so-great" habits that we should know about? For instance, do you bark or dig in the yard? The only thing I have heard anyone complain about is a do whine I bit when my family leaves the house or leaves me in a room and not in my crate.
Are you house trained? (Meaning do you go potty outside) I sure am!
Do you like water? I haven’t tested my water legs yet but I did love getting my toes wet at the beach. I don’t love the sprinklers and have been avoiding the shower.
What do you love about your foster family? I love that I get to cruise around the house and hang out. I love watching TV on “my spot” on the couch.
What was your life like before being brought into NorCal Bully Breed Rescue? I was brought to the rescue when my original person passed away too soon, I was left without family to take me in so now I am looking for my new forever family.
