Meet Penny, a fun-loving 2-year-old, 62-pound spayed female Shepherd/Husky mix with a bright spirit and a heart full of love. Currently in a foster home in Mooresville, NC, she can transport out of state once an approved adopter is ready. Penny radiates affection and energy; she thrives on interaction and seeks an active lifestyle. Living with other dogs, she enjoys their company but requires careful introductions, especially with smaller or more timid dogs. Confident, medium-to-large canine friends help her feel at ease. While she's captivated by the outdoors, Penny hasn't been tested with cats indoors, so a cat-free environment is ideal. She's had previous interactions with children of varying ages but would do best in a home with older teens or adults who understand her needs. Fully house-trained, Penny does well when left in a confined space, although she still struggles with separation anxiety. Leash walks are a highlight for her, and she benefits from structured physical and mental activities. Though she may show signs of past trauma, she’s a loving companion that bonds deeply once she feels safe. Penny is ready to thrive in a stable home that offers patience, structure, and understanding. If you're looking for a smart and cuddly sidekick, Penny could be the perfect match for you. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
