Penny is a beautiful, strong 4-year-old girl weighing about 63 pounds. While she isn’t a beginner dog, she is an incredibly loving one. Once she feels safe, Penny is a total love bug. She bonds deeply with her people and has that steady, soulful presence that makes you feel chosen. At home, Penny is wonderfully chill. She knows how to relax, enjoys lounging near her humans, and brings a calm, grounded energy to her space. She’s not chaotic or high-strung — she just needs the right environment to feel secure. She also has a fun side — introduce her to water and she lights up. Splashing, wading, exploring — she’s absolutely about that life.
Ideal Home
Penny would thrive in a quieter suburban or country home with space to stretch her legs and decompress. She needs a predictable routine and a confident handler. Busy city life isn’t for her as too much noise and activity can make her nervous. A home near a lake, a big yard with a kiddie pool, or outdoor adventures would make her very happy. Because of her size and strength, Penny would do best in a home with teens and older (13+). She is not cat-friendly and will need a cat-free home.
Ongoing Health
No ongoing health conditions are noted in the description.
Training & Support
Penny can be selective with other dogs and needs proper, structured introductions. On leash, she can be reactive toward dogs, so she’s looking for an experienced owner who understands leash reactivity and is committed to continued training and clear boundaries. With confident leadership, she does best.
