About Penn

Meet Penn. Penn is a 3-year-old German Shepherd mix weighing about 48 pounds. He’s a medium-sized boy eager for a person to call his own. Sadly, his foster home fell through, and now he finds himself in a boarding facility. For a dog that thrives on human companionship, this is a tough situation. Penn adores people and enjoys their company. He loves going for car rides, playing ball, and taking walks. He’s the kind of dog who just wants to be near someone he trusts, giving his whole heart in return for a little attention. It’s important to note that Penn needs to be the only dog in your home. While we want to be clear about this, it makes him the perfect choice for someone looking for a loyal companion without the distractions of other pets. If you’re seeking a devoted friend, Penn could be exactly who you’ve been waiting for. What he truly needs right now is not another kennel, but a home. Someone to say, “You’re coming home with me.” If you’re looking for a walking buddy and a loyal pal, Penn is ready to be that partner. Let’s not let boarding be his forever home. Penn is waiting for you to choose him.
