Penelope's Story

Meet pretty Miss Penelope! She is a 3.5 yr old Dachsund/Pitty mix momma of 9 gorgeous babies who have all been adopted after arriving from Texas. Penelope is a very sweet, submissive and timid lady who absolutely loves attention. She will need patience in her new home to let her relax and feel safe but that won't take too long. This momma also has been dealt a bad hand being heart worm positive and under treatment that will continue when adopted into her new family. Penelope is house trained but she is not fond of the cold snow and will use the pads. She is the most sweetest and loving lady that deserves the best furrever family!!<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting, please visit our website and complete an adoption application at www.elpasocountycanine.org/adopt

El Paso County Canine Rescue's Adoption Policy
Please bear with us as we process applications! We are working on changing our processes to function during the COVID-19 outbreak. We have had a big increase in people wanting to adopt (yay!) so it's taking us a bit of time to get through the applications. We work on a first-come, first-serve basis.
