Penny is an energetic ball of fun! She is go, go, go until it's time to "nest" in her favorite blanket or under the covers with you. Penny is 95% potty trained. She still gets a treat after going outside. She walks well on a leash. She is super affectionate with everyone she meets, older children, adults, elderly. She gets along with most dogs and some cats. She will chase a cat if they run but will also respect boundaries. She does not like animals near her food bowl but is fine with humans being near her food. She is "obsessed" with squeaker toys and needs to be supervised otherwise she pulls the squeaker out quickly. She plays fetch but is still learning to "drop it". She also really enjoys chewing on nylon bones. She is an excellent guard dog and will bark if someone is at the door, otherwise she rarely barks. Penny does struggle with getting nail trims. If you're looking for a sweet, cuddle bug, awesome dog, Penny is your gal!
