American Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat) Dog

PENNY the Dog needs a home

Her foster writes: Penny is a delightful, strawberry blonde, brindle, pit mix pup with a unique spotted nose! Her tail has been thumping since we left the Manhattan ACC. When we arrived home, Penny had a bath. She was patient while I bathed her with apricot puppy shampoo and she really liked being dried with a towel. Then it was time to explore her foster home. When she understood her dog bed is truly for her, she was so happy that she rolled over for a belly rub. Penny is a kisser - she licks your hand when you pet her, when you give her a treat, when you tuck her in for bedtime. She seems so grateful for attention and tender loving care. Penny knows her sit, although she''s so ravenous for food that her bottom raises off the floor when she reaches to nibble treats from my hand. She is housebroken, crate trained, and we''re working on her leash Penny is a lovable, happy-go-lucky pup waiting to meet her furever family, but in the meantime is enjoying being spoiled by her foster mommy!
