Behavioral issues

My story

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

Penny is a sweet girl who would thrive with a family in which she is the sole focus. She has severe separation anxiety, and is on a daily medication for it. (We hope she can be weaned off of it in time.) This is something her future family would have to be patient with and really work with her on. She is fine with other animals and kids, but she needs a lot of attention, so someone with a busy job that takes them out of the house or someone who has their attention split due to other pets or children likely won't be a good fit. Penny would really benefit from long walks, clicker training (she is very treat motivated), and possible dog day care/classes. She responds to her name, is house broken, and knows sit, stay, down, and can play fetch. She is also a puppy, so she is big on chewing and has no sense of self-preservation. We caught her trying to eat a rock more than once. She needs "power chewer" toys like Kongs to be happy. She is very fun, sweet, small, and mighty!
