Additional info:

Penny is a sweet, spunky, and delightfully amazing little girl with a whole lot of love to give. She adores her walks, enjoys learning new tricks, and will never turn down a tasty treat. She especially loves a good pip cup. Playful and energetic when it’s time to have fun, Penny is just as happy to curl up beside you for a cozy nap.

This cuddly sweetheart LOVES affection and believes she should always be the center of attention. She’s been known to gently nudge her foster brother out of the way—or even crawl under his legs—just to get a few extra pets. Penny is a smart girl! She already knows sit, lie down, touch, and focus, and she’s currently working on her recall during walks.

Penny gets along well with other dogs in the home, though she can become protective and a bit reactive when out on walks. She becomes very attached to her caretaker and also gets a little sad when you leave. She may cry for a bit, but she settles down on the couch and will greet you with the most dramatic (and adorable) welcome home—even if you were only gone for five minutes.

She gets chilly easily and absolutely loves bundling up in warm, fluffy blankets. Penny is still learning to feel comfortable around new people, and she does best with slow movements, treats, and gentle encouragement.

If you’re looking for a snuggly, funny, loyal companion with tons of personality, Penny might be your perfect match!
