Penny's Story

Penny is an incredibly sweet, food-motivated dog who will learn anything in exchange for a couple of treats. She is crate trained, potty trained, and loves to play with humans and love on anyone who will offer a scratch and a kiss.<br/><br/>Penny would prefer a home where she can be the apple of her human's eye. She is deaf, but that does not that slow her down, and she knows multiple hand signals. She loves to go for hikes and to meet new people. Do you have room in your home and heart for this amazing dog?<br/><br/>We asked her foster recently some questions about Penny and this is what she said:<br/><br/><br/>Nickname: we call her Lil' Bit, but she can't hear it, lol. You can all her whatever you want. ?<br/><br/>Favorite toy: definitely any type of ball. Fetch is her favorite game and speed is her goal, lol.<br/><br/>Favorite human food: we only offer carrots, but will eat anything!<br/>Favorite treat: she is very treat motivated and will eat anything, definitely not picky about food!<br/><br/>Does she snore: sometimes, not all the time. She dreams and dream barks sometimes as well. The biggest thing about her sleeping is to remember she can't hear and will get startled if woken up abruptly. A gentle pet on the head and she wakes much happier! Wouldn't you? She is an early riser, going outside about 6:30am, play for 30-45 minutes, and then back to bed (her own bedroom, lol) for a long nap.<br/><br/>She is most afraid of other dogs for sure. She is learning and getting better though and will sometimes be curious enough about our other dogs to sniff calmly behind a gate!<br/><br/>What makes her a good dog? Oh everything about her personality. She is hilarious and is constantly making us laugh. She will roll over on your lap so you can hold her baby style, belly up. She loves to be in your lap! She has puppy dog eyes mastered! She will look at you with so much love, it would melt anyone's heart! She needs to be someone's main Valentine this year!!<br/><br/>Penny is spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, and heartworm negative.
