Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Penny, a charming and playful Pointer mix eagerly awaiting her forever home! Penny is a sweet girl who just needs a little time to warm up. When meeting new people, she might bark excitedly at first, but she quickly settles down and shows her true, happy self. Penny’s Pointer heritage shines through when she’s exploring – watch her strike an adorable pointer pose every time she catches a new scent! She’s a smart cookie too, clearly letting you know when nature calls by heading to the door. If you don't let her out right away, a gentle pace and whine are her polite reminders. This chill girl isn’t picky; she loves her meals and isn’t fussy about treats. She’s currently taking an over-the-counter supplement for digestion, which helps keep her feeling great. At night, Penny is a perfect kennel sleeper. She rests soundly with the door secured, and in the morning, she greets you with boundless joy and a playful spirit. Penny thrives on connection. Though she might offer a small growl initially as she adjusts to new faces, she warms up quickly. Give her a moment, and soon she’ll be nudging you for pets and snuggling close. She’s a loyal companion who will happily follow you from room to room, always mindful not to be underfoot. When playtime is over, Penny knows how to relax, often retreating to her kennel for a peaceful nap. While some loud noises can startle her, Penny is a remarkably calm dog overall. But when she’s truly happy, her tail wags non-stop as she joyfully plays with her toys! Penny needs a patient and loving family who understands that good things take a little time. Once she’s comfortable, you’ll have a devoted, fun-loving, and calm companion. Adopt Penny and let her point her way into your heart! Penny Marie is from an owner surrender. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.
