Meet Penelope! 
Great with dogs – loves canine friends and playdates Cat-approved – respectful and curious, not prey-driven Kid-friendly – gentle, happy, and eager to be part of a family High energy – perfect for active households, runners, hikers, and backyard zoomies
If you’re looking for a loving, energetic companion who will keep you laughing and fill your days with joy, Penelope is waiting for you in Grantville, PA.
We are PA Caring for K-9's, an all-breed dog rescue that is solely run by volunteers. Most of our dogs are rescued from high kill shelters in the South. If the dog is posted, they are still available! Once arriving, these dogs enter foster homes, as we do not have a shelter. We cannot adopt out dogs to a home with dogs that are not fixed or up to date on shots. If interested in adopting, please submit an application online at www.pack9rescue.org. Our adoption fee for altered dogs is $350 and goes directly to saving the lives of more dogs. Our adoption fee for unaltered puppies will be $400 which includes a refundable $50 deposit upon receipt of spay/neuter certificate. Learn more about adopting from us or volunteering for us at www.pack9rescue.org or check us out on Facebook for more information and a complete list of dogs available for adoption. https://www.facebook.com/PaCaringForK9s/
