Penny Labrador Retriever & Golden Retriever Mix Eau Claire, WI

Hi There! My name is Penny and I am proud to be a female Labrador Retriever mix. I started my adventure in Texas where I found myself in a shelter that had a lot of dogs, but the Eau Claire County Humane Association was in need of canines, so a transfer was set up. Everyone was SO excited to see me and I was quickly adopted to a wonderful family! However, as I grew into a much larger and much stronger dog, I started to overpower the very young children in the household with my size and energy, so I was sadly returned on 11/08/17 at 9 months of age. I am very friendly and I love people, but my safer tests did detect some food and rawhide aggression, so I am in need of a home without children.

I have a lot of puppy energy and I love to go, go, go, so an active household that will keep me well exercised would be great, and one with a fenced in yard would be even better! I am housebroken, crate trained (use the word kennel), and I know sit, down, and settle. A requirement of adopting me is that you must take me to basic obedience training classes. I will get lots of treats for doing well, which will be easy-peasy for a smart girl like myself, and it will give us even more time together - a win, win for everyone!

I am a super friendly, enthusiastic, playful, outgoing kind of girl that loves to go on long walks! I do pull at first, but once I have been out for a bit I calm down quickly into a much better pace. I love to be on the move and would make a fantastic running partner for you!

I am a spayed female with a beautiful golden, easy to care for coat, and Weimaraner looking eyes. I am very anxious to show you how alert, confident, and playful I am. Oh, my life will be so much better with you in it, and I can hardly wait to meet you!
