Story
Introducing the perfect pair - Penny and Petunia! Penny and Petunia are 5-month-old Daschhund/Beagle mixes. They were rescued from a kill shelter in Swainsboro, GA where they were extremely scared for each new day. Luckily, they were rescued and now they no longer have to wake up wondering if they will be taken care of.
Penny currently weighs about 13 lbs and will be a small-medium-sized girl when fully grown. Prior to being rescued Penny suffered from an injury to her front right paw. She was found with a wire tightly wrapped around her foot, cutting off all circulation. Luckily, she was taken to the vet and prescribed antibiotics and a treatment plan for her foot. Now fully healed, Penny still has the scars but has full function of her foot.
Due to Penny's past, she can be quite shy when meeting new people. With just a little patience and TLC, she will surely be your best friend. Having other confident dogs around is like flipping on a switch for Penny. With the confident dogs by her side, she unleashes her zoomies and true playful nature. Penny has so much fun playing with soft and squeaky toys, playing chase with her canine friends, or just watching the birds fly by. Penny would do best with older children who can be patient with her while she gets comfortable. She is also working diligently on her leash, crate, and house training.
