Penny is a 2 1/2-year-old English Bulldog mix with a big, stout frame and a compact, neat coat. She’s got a classic bulldog underbite that gives her some extra personality, but her standout trait is her intense loyalty. Penny needs a breed-savvy adopter who understands guardian types and can offer consistent leadership—she thrives in a home with structure, boundaries, and ongoing training. Ball-chasing is her reason for living, and playtime makes her shine. Penny gets along with other dogs, but she needs a handler who can manage her energy and keep her from getting bossy. She’s crate-trained, house-trained, and has a solid foundation in obedience basics, picking up routines quickly when given clear instructions. Once settled in, she shows off her affectionate, quirky side, always up for a cuddle or a laugh with her family. A single-family home with a fenced yard is ideal. Large breed and bully-type experience are must-haves for her future human. Penny’s okay with other balanced dogs and older kids on a case-by-case basis—she isn’t a match for cats. Medical note: she previously had TPLO surgery on one leg and made a full recovery; surgery for a recent tear in her other knee will be covered with adoption interest. Penny is looking for someone ready to commit to her care and give her the leadership she craves. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
