Penny's Story

"From the side of the highway to your home!"<br/><br/>I am a goofy, loving, energetic ball of fun and I love playing with balls and toys. I do take time to build trust with new people and situations so I'd need someone very patient. I would need a home without small children.<br/><br/>General Socialization Notes:<br/>I am fearful of new situations (new people, new dogs,) which presents as barking and backing away. I have been taking training classes to help build my confidence.<br/>I am extremely food motivated. I am getting much better at meeting new people especially when they have treats! I am potty trained and crate-trained. I sleep through the night and love my routine.<br/><br/>Does Penny like other animals?<br/>I love playing with my 5-year old foster dog brother. He is a well-socialized friend and has a calm demeanor. I do want to chase small animals (rabbits and squirrels) on walks, so I'd likely not do well with small dogs, cats, or other small pets in the home.<br/><br/>Does Penny like children?<br/>Younger children would be too unpredictable for me, but I might do well with older teens who are calm and take the time to build my trust.<br/><br/>Favorite Toys:<br/>I love Kongs filled with treats (I'll spend hours working on them.) I really enjoy running through sprinklers. I also love tennis balls, and any squeaky toys to play fetch with.<br/><br/>Ideal Forever Home:<br/>I need someone who is used to shy dogs like me. I'd love space to play outside and I'd need someone committed to continuing my training so I keep improving and building trust. I'd do well with a larger, well socialized dog. No small children please.
