Description:
Penny is a 35 pound happy go lucky female. Reminds me of a mini pin with her short black hair and energy. Approximately 4 years old, vet says she still has 3 year old teeth. Very loving and obedient this dog would do well with any mature age group. Penny is very easy going and active, loves adventure.
Loves to run and play with stuffed toys and chase, tug of war and plays outside just so long as you are in sight when she chases the squirrels.
Penny loves to cuddle and be petted, she snuggles alot. Just wants to lay next to you and never have to move. Likes to sleep under the covers and will not get up until you do.
Her original owner was a senior that had to be hospitalized and could no longer care for her, I have been her foster mom trying to find her a good home. If you think you could give Penny the snuggles and cuddles and playtime she deserves, please email her foster mom at threekatie@earthlink.net . Penny would light up any life as she has a happy spirit.


How much do you know about Beagles? According to www.dogbreedinfo.com, the Beagle is one of the most popular scent hounds because of his energy, willingness, and merry, sweet disposition. The breed probably originated as a cross between the Harrier and other hounds in England. The Beagle has been used in packs, alone, and in pairs, for hunting hare, pheasant and quail. He has also served as an excellent narcotics detection dog and makes a fine family companion. The Beagle is a gentle, sweet, lively and curious dog that just loves everyone! A happy little tail-wagger! Sociable, brave and intelligent. Calm and loving. Excellent with children and generally good with other dogs, but should not be trusted with non-canine pets, unless they are socialized with cats and other household animals when they are young. Beagles have minds of their own. They are determined and watchful and require patient, firm training. This breed doesn't like being left alone. Consider buying two if you will be gone a lot. A Beagle has a loud baying cry that was a delight to hunting horsemen, but can be disturbing to family and neighbors. Beagles have a tendency to follow their own noses. They may take off on their own exploration if let off their leash in an unfenced area. Energetic and possessing great stamina, the Beagle needs plenty of exercise, but a yard of reasonable size will take care of most of its requirements. A brisk daily walk will cover the rest. Always use a lead when walking this breed or you will be running the risk of it disappearing in search of wild game. They have a life expectancy of about 12-15 years.
