Currently located in Mooresville, NC, she has a bright spirit and an eagerness to explore the world around her. Though she can come on strong during playtime, especially with smaller or shyer dogs, she thrives when paired with medium to large canine friends who can help her learn the ropes of social interaction. Penny loves to be active and enjoys daily walks, hikes, or any outdoor adventures with her humans. Although she has not been tested directly with cats, she has displayed prey drive outdoors, so a cat-free home is recommended.
