My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Penny — the 8–9 month old Mini Aussie mix who’s equal parts sunshine, sass, and snuggles.
At around 21 lbs, she’s the perfect fun-sized adventure buddy.

Penny came to us a bit underweight after her time in the shelter, but with good food, love, and structure, she’s filled out beautifully and is so ready for her forever family.

From her foster:
Penny walked into our home and immediately won everyone over. She’s crazy smart, picks up new cues quickly, and is already walking politely on a leash. Meals? A full-body experience. She treats every bite like it’s a gourmet event and does the cutest little “this is delicious!” wiggle.

She adores her foster brothers — Hardy, the calm mentor, and Jordy, the high-energy Border Collie who matches her zoomies stride for stride. They wrestle, fetch, chase, and entertain each other until they flop into a cuddle pile. After playtime, Penny becomes a world-class snuggler, happily curling up with her foster mom while she works from home.

Crating: Zero issues. She sleeps calmly through the night in her crate, no fuss.
Mornings: Expect a three-dog, two-human cuddle fest before coffee.
Kids: She met kids during Halloween and thought they were awesome.
Cats: Hasn’t met any yet, but she’s curious and open to learning.

Her foster dad jokes he’d adopt her in a heartbeat — but he knows this special girl has a family waiting just for her.
Penny is affectionate, bright, eager to learn, and full of joyful energy. If you’re looking for a young dog who brings laughs, loyalty, and the perfect amount of Aussie sparkle…
Penny might just be your girl.

Additional adoption info

All applications for adoption are considered based on the wants of the adopter and the needs of each individual animal.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

After being approved by a team member, you'll be able to schedule a meet and greet with the pup that best matches your needs.

All of our pets are in private foster homes and many times the meeting will happen in a safe public location.

All animals are available to begin their home trials once the meeting has concluded and the rescue agrees to allow the pet to move forward to this stage.
