Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Penelope is a 7-month-old fun little Chihuahua puppy who tips the scale at 7 pounds. We’re guessing she’ll be about 9 or 10 pounds fully grown.
Penelope’s puppy theme song is “Girls just wanna have fun.” She loves to play. She’s in a house with 5 other dogs, and she makes a good effort at getting them all up off their butts and running around to chase her. There are also six cats in the house, and she has learned to leave them alone.
She’s a pretty typical puppy and loves toys, especially squeaky and crinkly toys. But her favorite game is playing zoomies with the other dogs out in the yard. I chase you! No, you chase me! And round and round they go.
Penelope loves foster dogmom and dogdad and snags snuggles wherever she can get them. She is very happy to sit (or sleep) in a lap while being petted and told what a pretty girl she is.
Penelope is not crate-trained but she is pen-trained. She is also potty-pad trained. She travels well in a car.
Penelope would do fine in a house or an apartment. She’d also be happy with children 8 or older (no young children—she’s still mouthy sometimes).
Penelope’s adoption fee is $275 and includes spay, all puppy shots & microchip. She is heartworm-negative and on heartworm medication.
Note:
We always respond first to inquiries that tell us something about your living situation (house, apartment, single, family, etc.) and why you want this dog. Be sure to include your phone number in your inquiry. We call inquiries that seem to be a good fit for the dog.
