Penelope's Story

Meet Penelope – the bravest cuddlebug you'll ever meet!<br/>Penelope is one of the sweetest souls we’ve ever rescued, and she’s finally ready to find her forever home. After enduring unimaginable trauma early in life, Penelope landed in a shelter where she was placed on the euthanasia list due to overcrowding. Thankfully, we were able to step in just in time and begin her journey to healing.<br/><br/>During her initial veterinary assessment, we discovered something heartbreaking — Penelope was missing her tongue. We’ll never know exactly what happened, but from that moment on, it became our mission to help her heal, both physically and emotionally.<br/><br/>Now, months later, Penelope is thriving in foster care and full of love to give. She adores people — especially kids! She loves following little ones around to see what they’re up to, and being a part of playtime is her favorite. She’s a total cuddlebug who wants nothing more than to snuggle up with her people. When she’s not curled up with you, she enjoys sunbathing in the yard or snoozing peacefully in her crate.<br/><br/>Penelope is also a social butterfly with other dogs — both big and small! She lives with two canine foster siblings and absolutely lights up when friends come over for playdates. While she prefers the energy of larger dogs for more active play, she’s gentle and respectful with smaller pups, too. The only thing on her “no thanks” list? Cats.<br/><br/>You might be wondering about her care needs — especially with her missing tongue. Thankfully, it’s very manageable! She eats “mini meatballs” twice a day and has made amazing progress, transforming from underweight and frail to strong, healthy, and absolutely beautiful.<br/><br/>Penelope has shown us nothing but resilience, love, and joy — now it’s time for her to share all of that with a forever family.
