Penny's Story

If you love a little dog with a big personality, look no further! Penny is an 8+ year-old Yorkie who is officially ready to trade her rescue life for a couple of extra-plush dog beds and a family to dote on her.<br/>Penny is a resilient little fighter. Since coming into rescue, she has breezed through two surgeries (one for bladder stones and one for a mammary tumor) and is feeling fantastic and ready for her next chapter. She might be a senior, and she might be a little hard of hearing, but she has plenty of love—and a fun touch of Yorkie sass—to give!<br/> The Life and Times of Penny:<br/>The Ultimate Sunbather: Penny absolutely loves going outside to sniff the grass and investigate the yard. <br/> Great House Manners: She is both crate-trained and puppy-pad trained. <br/> Social Circles: She does well with older kids and easy-going dog siblings (she likes to be the boss, so laid-back furry friends are best!). <br/> Fresh & Fancy: She keeps up her signature Yorkie look with a fresh groom every 6 weeks. <br/> Pennys Perfect Retirement Setup:<br/>To keep this sweet girl happy, healthy, and safe, her dream home looks like this:<br/>Single-Level Living: Her super short legs mean stairs are a no-go. A ranch-style home or single-level apartment/condo setup is perfect.<br/>A Fenced Yard: Penny is a curious explorer! A securely fenced yard is a must so she can safely investigate whatever catches her eye. <br/>A House, Not an Apartment: Penny likes to use her voice to let you know what's going on, so shared-wall apartments aren't the best fit for her vocal stylings. <br/>The Royal Diet: To make sure those pesky bladder stones never come back, Penny just needs a simple prescription diet and distilled water. Easy peasy! <br/>Penny's adoption fee is $200, and she is entirely ready to fill your home with love, entertainment, and senior sweetness.<br/> Ready to give Penny the pampered life she deserves?
