About Penelope

Penelope is a loving and cuddly girl, truly the definition of a Velcro dog. She thrives on being near her people, following them around or curling up for a cozy nap. This one-year-old Labrador Retriever mix has a short coat in shades of gray, blue, and silver that adds to her charm. Crate trained and comfortable in her space, Penelope prefers her crate when her family is away. She responds well to a consistent routine with three daily potty breaks to avoid accidents in the house. Currently residing with two cats, she respects their space and only interacts when invited. She's also great with other dogs, though her experience with children is still a mystery. Penelope is ready to join a loving family looking for a devoted companion. Located in Houston, she can be transported to most states for a $300 transport fee. This could be the start of something special. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
