Introducing Penelope! Penelope is a sweet, silly soul who lights up every room she enters. She's got a contagious grin, a goofy personality, and a love for people that knows no bounds. Whether she's trotting around the yard with her tongue lolling out or cozying up next to you for snuggles, Penelope is happiest when she's with her humans.
This lovely lady thrives on attention and affection - she'll lean right into you for pets and give you those "please love me forever" eyes. She's also a total ham and will do just about anything to make you laugh (and maybe earn a treat or two while she's at it!).
Penelope is still figuring out her feelings about other dogs, so for now, she's looking to be the only pet in a home where she can be your one and only. With her big heart, that's all you'll need.
