Penny is a little less than a year old. She's spayed and weighs around 50 pounds. We believe she is a chocolate lab/Australian shepherd mix. She does well with cats as long as they don't chase her. She is housebroken. She's a very sweet dog but she is very rambunctious and needs a lot of room to run.

If you are interested in adopting Penny please email angelicawhisenant@gmail.com
