Penny's Story

Meet Penny – your tiny fox-faced shadow with a playful heart 🦊🐾<br/>Penny is a little 7-pound bundle of personality born in November 2025. This adorable wire-haired Chihuahua/Terrier mix has the cutest little fox face and the sweet, gentle spirit to match.<br/>Like any young pup, Penny still has plenty of playful puppy energy and would absolutely love a doggy playmate close to her size. She’s great at entertaining herself with toys, but you can tell she’d really enjoy having a friend to wrestle and play chase with. Even though my own dogs are seniors who aren’t interested in puppy games, Penny has been very respectful of their boundaries. Her best buddy here is actually my big 80-pound dog, and she loves curling up next to him for naps.<br/>Penny can be a little shy when meeting new people, but if you give her a little patience and kindness, she quickly shows her true personality — a very sweet, devoted little companion. Since I work from home, she spends her days supervising from a cozy bed next to my desk and faithfully follows me from room to room like a tiny shadow. She clearly loves being near her person.<br/>She sleeps quietly in her crate at night like a good girl, though if she had her way, she’d happily snuggle up in bed with you instead. She also loves to play fetch and is very enthusiastic about the “chase the ball” part… she’s just still working on the “bring it back” part 😄<br/>Penny is:• Spayed• Fully vaccinated• Microchipped• Crate trained• Great with other respectful dogs<br/>Her ideal home would be with someone patient who understands that shy dogs just need a little time to blossom, and ideally with another playful dog to help her burn off some of that puppy energy and build her confidence.<br/>If you’re looking for a small, loyal companion who will be your little sidekick, Penny might just be your girl.

Habitat 4 Paws's Adoption Policy
Adopters must visit with a potential pet and adoption counselor. We prefer that all family members and pets are present during this process to ensure a good fit. If all goes well, adopters will complete an application. After application approval, a home visit will be scheduled.  We do not hold pets nor do we adopt on a first come, first served basis. Our goal is to find the home that best fits that pet’s needs. Adoption fees are $225 for dogs, $275 for puppies under 1 year of age, $185 for cats and kittens.  All pets will be spayed/neutered, receive age appropriate vaccinations and microchip, will be tested for common diseases, and kept current on heartworm and flea preventative. Habitat 4 Paws will host regular offsite adoptions, food drives, microchip clinics and fundraising events. Stay up to date through our website and Facebook page!
