PENELOPE DEE - AMERICAN STAFFORDSHIRE TERRIER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Posted Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier / Mixed (short coat). The dogs Arcadia Animal Rescue saves are mainly located in southern states, such as NC, SC, TN and TX. We can transport to most states, through partner networks. Virtual meet n greets can be arranged for all non-local adopters. Meet Penelope Dee! “Pennie” Dee is a gorgeous, lively, lovely, and loyal girl! She was a stray that was rescued and saved just a day prior to the unthinkable - being euthanized because of overcrowding at the shelter. Here is what her foster parents have to say: “Pennie is about 6 months old and about just 40 lbs. She is spayed, vaccinated, and in perfect health. She is loving, extremely affectionate, loyal, protective, cuddle bug, charming, all fun and funny, wrapped in a bundle of sunshine and kisses of a Cinnabon! There are no down or cloudy days in Pennie’s perfect soul! She is as much the adventure as makes the most mundane the adventure itself! She loves to play, play, and then play a bit more. She is brilliant and wants to please her human parents. She loves other dogs and although she does not always observe personal space, she would greatly benefit from another confident/playful/tolerant dog that would serve as her pack leader. Despite this, since she is an exciting gala of one, she would be fine by herself as long her human is engaged and spends quality time with her. She has already learned potty training, politely waiting for treats and her meals, and is fast learning the intricacies of house living. She does well in a crate when we are out running errands yet please be mindful, crates are for vegetables, not loving, living, breathing, beautiful beings like Pennie. If you are ready to live life and pounce on every ounce of fun, Pennie is your fun life’s copilot! Strap in!” Note: Pennie is currently being fostered in the Charlotte NC area Thank you for caring about a pet in need! To apply to adopt, click on .arcadiarescue/application. If the pet you applied for is no longer available, .arcadiarescue/adopt to see all of our available pets. Note: Some pups are in boarding facilities in order to save their lives. This is far from ideal, they really need to be in loving homes. Due to record number owner surrenders this year, we have zero foster homes available. Fostering helps save another pup from euthanasia in an overcrowded kill shelter needing to free up a kennel. If you can foster, go to .arcadiarescue/foster and fill out a foster application. Thank you!
