Penelope's Story

Do you believe in love at first sight?<br/><br/>My name is Penelope - though for the first few days of my life I went by Eugenie. That name didn't stick, but my luck sure did. I was at Chicago Animal Care and Control when a volunteer from CARE came to look around. The staff there had my back and gave me a glowing recommendation, and when my CARE person laid eyes on me, it was instant. They fell in love, and I became a CARE favorite. Now I just need the next chapter - a home of my very own.<br/><br/>Fair warning: I am a certified house hippo. I love a good walk, I am always up for a little playtime, but I will never say no to a couch - especially if you are on it. If your idea of a perfect day involves a mix of fresh air and serious lounging, we are going to get along just fine.<br/><br/>I am a people dog through and through. Men, women, kids - it does not matter to me. I might take a moment to warm up when we first meet, but give me that chance and I promise I will come around and make it worth your while.<br/><br/>I have already proven I am worth rooting for. All I need now is someone willing to share their couch - and their heart. Could that be you?<br/><br/>Big tail wags<br/><br/>Penelope
