Please contact Lowell Nelson (lowelln@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.young girl ISO happily ever after! PENELOPE NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!     Name:  Penelope        Best Guess for Breed:   Shepherd mix   Best Guess for Age:  2 years as of June 2025          SEX:  Female   Approximate Weight:   45 lbs   Gets Along With:  Other dogs! We haven’t seen her with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!   Currently Living at:  DC area foster home   Check out these videos of Penelope: https://youtube.com/shorts/RPdSvSDksfk; https://youtube.com/shorts/hvYSThT7-QM   Penelope is Looking For: Penelope is a super smart cookie and she’s seeking humans who appreciate that about her! She’s a young girl full of zest for life and wants physical and mental enrichment. Simple walks on leash won’t cut it for her – she’s up for more. Advanced agility, nose work, fun enrichment – she’s by your side for it all! Most of all – she wants to know who her humans are, where she belongs, and to be under her own roof. In exchange she promises to keep your life awesome – and loyal companionship for all her days! What My Foster Says About Me:   Penelope loves all people and is such a people pleaser. She is quick to learn, follows commands well, likes to play a lot and be very active, but also knows how to relax and enjoys affectionate cuddles and nap times by your side. She is a confident girl who likes to be a boss lady in a dog community. She gets along really well with submissive/relaxed dogs who don’t try to dominate her. She likes to play with other dogs at the dog park and is still learning to share balls as she wants to be in charge of them all!   Penelope does really well in the car and likes to go for car rides. She is doing well on house-training, and she is left at home with other dogs for hours without separation anxiety or other issues; she just sleeps!  Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training.  TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter.
