Recently, Penny lost her longtime family due to a housing crisis. Itâs obvious she was cherished, and sheâs eager to find a home that will love her for good this time. Sheâs smart and learns quickly, already mastering basic commandsâand even some in Spanish! Her leash manners are solid, though she prefers to keep her distance from other dogs and trusts her handler to steer clear when sheâs feeling uneasy. Indoors, Penny warms up to new people at her own pace and benefits from slow introductions with space to relax if she gets nervous. Out and about, sheâs friendly to strangers and exceptionally gentle with childrenâsheâs known to accept treats kindly from toddlers in her fosterâs building. Penny is fully housebroken, crate trained, and happy with a flexible potty routine. Despite all sheâs been through, Penny is still playful, curious, and eager to bond.
