Hey y'all, the name is Penelope Pickles and I came back into the care of MUR to find my forever home. I may not be a tiny puppy anymore, but that means you get to skip the crying at all hours of the night (I'm fully kennel trained) and cleaning up messes because I'm house trained already, too! Doesn't that sound amazing? I'm definitely still learning and my leash skills are constantly improving. I get along well with other dogs so long as I get a proper introduction, in fact I would do best in a home with a confident doggy sibling to show me the ropes. I'm also good with dog-savvy cats. Kids are a bit much for me so I would prefer a home where I don't have to share my space with any. I would do best with a confident and experienced dog handler. I have been working on myself a lot lately but meeting new people still makes me nervous, especially men. I have a come a long way already but I need someone who can pay attention to my cues and will advocate for me since I don't have a voice of my own. I have been doing great at meeting new people when they allow me to take the time I need to get comfortable. Sometimes I dislike being handled but I am working hard with my fosters on getting desensitized to touch even when I'm nervous, like when getting my nails cut (it's scary, ok?). I bet if we took a class together, we would both be more confident! I have formed a great relationship with Pliant Pack Positive Dog Training and would appreciate continuing my training with them since they already know all about me. Don't you think that sounds great? If you need a cuddly, energetic and goofy girl like me in your life, apply to meet me today!
