Penny is truly the sweetest family dog. She is calm and gentle. Penny is very affectionate and LOVES people. Penny loves getting pets and belly rubs. She is a pit bull mix about 7.5 years young with a beautiful copper-colored coat (hence her name Penny!). Our sweet Penny was in the Carson animal shelter for 6 months before she received her final notice. She was rescued late February this year, and she's been living with me (her current foster mom) for a little over 4 months.
Penny is happy just sitting next to anyone in the family. She loves her daily walks and loves lounging in the sun. Penny is house trained and is very good at some tricks. Penny is in a foster home with other small dogs that are older and she may be able to live with another calm dog with training and slow introductions. Penny has some skin allergies so she takes zenrelia regularly and currently eats a mix of plant-based and chicken-based food. Penny would be an amazing family dog!
Confident, loyal and very people-focused, with the same goofy streak as other bully breeds. Strong-willed but highly food-motivated and responsive to reward-based training.
High — 60+ minutes daily plus mental work.
Frequently caught by building breed restrictions. Check your lease. Otherwise a clean, adaptable and affectionate city dog.
