Penny's Story

Penny came to us after her owner passed away. After spending her whole life with her mom, we could tell she was a bit sad and anxious to start over in a new environment. But, Penny found comfort in people and quickly attached to her foster mom (she especially loves women). She likes to give lots of kisses, snuggle, sit in a lap or lay on the backrest of the couch, and she enjoys sleeping in bed with her person. She can be home alone, but she would like someone who is home often or can bring her along when going out. She does great in the car! She's a little insecure right now so she likes to stay near her person to make sure she won't lose them again, but we are confident that she will relax once she is in a home for awhile and knows you aren't going to leave her!<br/><br/>When she gets comfortable, she will leave your side and enjoys being active. She likes to play, chase lizards and will hop in the air after moths and flies. She would enjoy going for hikes, walks through the neighborhood or hanging out at a coffee shop. <br/><br/>Penny has gotten along with everyone she has met so far, but we have not had her around children yet. Based on her temperament, we think she would do best with older or no kids. She does well with other dogs, but isn't a fan of cats. She definitely prefers people over anyone and would be fine as the only pet. <br/><br/>Penny is a 12lb, 6 year old (but acts much younger) Chihuahua. She is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. She is in great shape and healthy. She can be picky with her food, but is still a good weight. <br/><br/>Penny dislikes being in a crate and will break out if put in one, but she does alright being left to roam in the house. She whines a bit right after you leave, but then just curls up on the couch until you get back. She is housebroken and not destructive. <br/><br/>If you're interested in meeting her, please submit an adoption application on our website at www.dominoeffectanimalrescue.org
