Penelope - Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Tempe, Arizona

Hello, My name is Penelope!

Penelope is a sweet, gentle soul looking for a patient family to help her blossom. This affectionate and curious girl may be a little shy when meeting new people and situations, but with a slow approach and a little reassurance, her loving personality begins to shine through.
Penelope is bonded to her best friend, Dusty, and the two are hoping to find a forever home together. They take comfort in each other's presence and will thrive with a family that understands the special connection they share. Because Penelope can be anxious and fearful at times, having Dusty by her side helps her feel safe and confident.
This dainty girl enjoys playtime, especially when toys or treats are involved. Being both toy- and food-motivated makes it easy to earn her trust and build a bond. She is also potty pad trained and appreciates a consistent routine.
Penelope would do best in a home with older children (7+) who can respect her need to go slow and allow her to settle in at her own pace. Her history with cats is unknown, so any introductions to feline friends should be done carefully.

If you have room in your heart and home for a devoted duo, Penelope and Dusty are ready to show you just how rewarding unconditional love can be. Could you be the family they've been waiting for?

This bonded pair has an adoption fee of $450 and includes the following:
-Spay/neuter surgery
-All current vaccinations
-Microchip
-FREE wellness exam through VCA Animal Hospitals
