Penny is a happy-go-lucky dog who absolutely loves her ball! She is moderate energy and is quite the wiggle butt. She loves kids but I recommend older children as she has yet to learn about personal space and sometimes, we'll jump on them, and her claws will scratch. She still needs more basic training, but she has learned to sit and wait before she is fed in her crate. She eats in her crate as she has a certain degree of resource guarding.
She gets along fine with her co Foster, Lupe, but they have gotten in the odd argument over a ball. Penny is still fine with cats and is really good with strangers and children she has never met before. She's a bit of a puller so I find the halter leash works really well with her. She has shown no health issues and no separation anxiety. She has met strange dogs and seems very appropriate and wanting to play. She does bark when someone comes to the door, but she is not an excessive Barker. She could use more training as she has almost no recall, except that she has learned to bring the ball back to me. She would do well as an only dog or with a dog that likes to play that is not an alpha dog.

Adoption costs: $650.00
