About Penny
Penny is a 10-year-old Maltese who has shown incredible resilience. Found alone on the streets, she endured more than any dog should, losing one eye to untreated glaucoma and later having her remaining eye removed. Luckily, her journey didn't end there. With the help of caring individuals, she is now learning what love and safety feel like. This tiny girl adores cuddle time, often curling up in your arms and showering you with sweet little kisses. Though she's blind, her adventurous spirit shines through as she confidently explores her surroundings. Penny is mostly potty trained and has a quirky habit of burying her treats to save for later. She prefers to eat from a feeding mat, making mealtime much more comfortable for her. Given her background, Penny can be anxious and will flourish in a calm, predictable home where she can take her time to settle in. She shows no aggression and only wants to feel secure and cherished. Penny is also a superstar during bath time, and her skin is improving with regular care. Although she has a low-grade heart murmur, it doesn’t hinder her joyful spirit. If you're looking for a gentle companion who will curl up beside you and remind you of the strength in vulnerability, Penny is eager to meet you. Remember, though she can't see, she will help you appreciate the real beauty of kindness. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
