PENNY - CHIHUAHUA / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Mixed (short coat). Meet Penny! If you are looking for a sweet little companion who simply wants to love and be loved, Penny may be your girl. Penny is a house trained 10 year old Chihuahua mix who weighs just 11 pounds and is currently enjoying life in a loving foster home. She is incredibly easygoing and warmhearted, with a gentle personality that makes her wonderful company. Penny loves going for walks and would happily help you get your steps in each day, but she is equally content curling up beside you while you enjoy a good book or your favorite TV show. Penny is an affectionate girl who loves being close to her people. Come home after being gone for the day, or even just five minutes, and she will be ready to welcome you with plenty of love. Sometimes all it takes is a glance in her direction and she will roll right over for a belly rub. Penny knows sit and is very food motivated, especially when hot dogs are involved, so she is always happy to learn when her favorite treat is the reward. She does not demand constant attention when you are home, but she finds comfort in simply knowing her people are nearby. Penny would do best in a loving home where someone is around often and she can feel safe and secure. Ideally, she would love to be the only dog so she can enjoy having her people all to herself. At 10 years old, Penny is past the busy puppy stage and seems to know exactly what makes her happy: a nice walk, a comfortable couch, plenty of belly rubs, and people to love. If that sounds like the kind of companion you have been looking for, Penny would love to meet you. If you are interested in adopting, please visit the I.C.A.R.E.
