About Peggy

Meet Peggy! At 11 years young, she’s the ultimate couch potato and a champion napper, perfect for those working from home. Peggy is sweet, chill, and rarely barks, believing that mornings are best spent snoozing. This little love enjoys being close to her humans and is happy to share the bed, as long as she gets her own cozy spot. While she prefers companionship, she can handle some alone time as well. Peggy thrives in a calm home environment. Although larger, more boisterous dogs can be a bit much for her, she gets along well with mellow canine friends and is even fine around cats. She could also do well as the only dog in the household. Peggy is fully housetrained, but she might have occasional accidents if she feels nervous, especially around bigger dogs. She’s fully vetted, recently had a dental and tumor removal, and she takes Vetmedin for a heart murmur. Peggy's ideal home includes a comfy couch, a peaceful daily routine, and someone who truly appreciates a low-maintenance senior sweetheart who has mastered relaxation.
