Story
Meet Stink Stink (aka Penny) 🐾Stink Stink, lovingly known as Penny, is a 7-month-old Basenji mix with a big personality and an even bigger love for life. She was found as a stray and never reclaimed, then later trial adopted and returned because she wasn’t a good match with the other dog in the home. That said, she does do well with her current kennel mate, so dog compatibility may depend on the individual dog and proper introductions.Penny is a very silly, playful girl who absolutely loves toys and having fun. She enjoys playtime, car rides (she does great in the car!), and being part of the action. She’s also a smart cookie—she is house trained and crate trained and will let you know when she needs to go outside to potty.She does well with cats and kids, making her a wonderful candidate for a family environment. Penny is heartworm negative, up to date on vaccinations and rabies, spayed, and microchipped. She weighs about 33 pounds.If you’re looking for a fun-loving, goofy companion who’s ready to enjoy life and bring smiles to your home, Stink Stink/Penny might be your perfect match. 🐶💕Penny's Adoption Fee is $115.50 plus tax.
