My name is Penny8!

This little Penny turned up down on her luck in a shelter. She was too thin, she was scruffy, and she was robbed of some of her puppyhood. We think that at some point, at least for a time, she was someone's little princess. Do you recall the story of "A Little Princess"? It could be her story. She is a nice little girl who has clearly had a nicer lifestyle at some point. Penny loves all people, big and small. She only wants to be with you to make her happy. She is content in her crate, in the Goldilocks way—it needs to be situated just right, then she is so comfortable. She loves her Penny-sized Lambchop—it is her woobie, it is her playmate. She has nice leash skills, and loves to learn with you, if only you will engage her in a trick/game/lesson. She does live with 5 other dogs and has settled nicely with them, she is one of them, but she would really prefer to be an only princess. She snuggles, she sploots, she plays. She likes to run, ride in the car, and most importantly, go/be with you. She is a life companion. Won't you be her special someone? We estimate her to be about 1 yr old. Penny has been through some basic training and is healthy, heartworm-negative, spayed, and current on vaccinations. Her best home will be one with at least one person at home, with some time to give upfront to continue to work on her getting comfortable in a new home, as one would with a new youngster, as well as someone able to provide some moderate activity. Her activity level, compared to other Dals her age is not high, but let us not forget that she is a young Dal. Penny is quite petite, about 36lbs, black spotted female, 1 blue eye, one brown eye-so striking. Her new home will need to be a detached living space, with a secure yard. Young grandparents are a sweet spot—she will love the grandkids, and you will love your little companion. Please contact Tena at  info@dalmatianrescueco.org  for more information.
