Meet Penny

Meet Penny — a tiny, gentle soul searching for a soft place to land. 🐾💖

Penny is a 14-year-old Pomeranian/Miniature Pinscher mix who spent her entire life in one loving home before her family unexpectedly had to move out of the country and couldn’t take her with them. She’s now navigating this new chapter with quiet grace and endless sweetness.

Currently in a foster home, Penny has shown just how special she is. She’s affectionate, calm, well-behaved, and a true couch potato. Cozy beds are her favorite (she even enjoys sleeping in her crate), but her happiest place is right beside her person. She enjoys short walks, has politely met other dogs, and tends to stick close—especially since she’s a bit hard of hearing and prefers to keep her people in sight.

Mealtime is Penny’s favorite event of the day! She is on a prescription low-fat ID diet and does best sticking to that, but she also enjoys fresh veggies and fruits like sweet potatoes, blueberries, green beans, and her favorite treat—peeled cucumber. Boiled chicken is welcome too—just keep everything low fat to support her health. She happily eats her meals, even with her medications mixed in, and being told she’s a “good girl” absolutely makes her day.

Medically, Penny is doing great and simply needs a little extra support to keep feeling her best. She takes Denamarin (or milk thistle) for liver support, Ursodiol to help manage liver/gallbladder sludge and keep things flowing smoothly, senior joint supplements for comfort, and Genteal as needed for dry eye. We recommend senior bloodwork yearly to monitor her liver values. She doesn’t tolerate sedation well and typically requires a reduced dose if ever needed.

If you’re looking for a quiet, loving senior companion who just wants comfort, companionship, and a cozy couch, Penny is ready to fill your home—and heart. 💕

Requirements: Martingale Collar; Low Fat Diet, Milk Thistle (Liver Support), Ursodiol (Liver/Gallbladder Support), Senior Joint Supplements, and Genteal Eye Drops (as needed)
