Penny - Shih Tzu and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Medfield, Massachusetts

Meet Penny!

Penny is a sweet 5-6 year old Shih Tzu mix looking for her forever home. This 11-pound gal was abandoned through no fault of her own, but she hasn't let that stop her from being an absolute joy in her foster home.

Penny is low-key and easygoing — she's not looking for a marathon partner, but she does enjoy playtime with the other dogs in her foster home. Mostly, though, she just wants to be near you. She's a total cuddle bug and soaks up attention like nothing else.

She's crate trained and fully house trained, so she'll settle into a new home with ease. Penny will have a dental before going to her forever home. Well-behaved and gentle, Penny would do best with someone who has time to give her the affection she craves.

If you're looking for a calm, loving companion who will happily curl up beside you, Penny might be your perfect match.
Please apply today. Penny would do best in a home with older children.

These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
