DOG OF THE WEEK: Help Penny Find Her 'Forever Home'

This Chihuahua mix needs a home. Will it be yours?

Penny, a Chihuahua mix, needs a home. Will it be yours?

Penny is a 6 month old Chihuahua mix that weighs about 3 pounds.  She is shy at first but warms up very quickly.  Penny is a sweet, lovable lap dog; a perfect dog for an individual or family looking for a small bundle of joy.  She loves other dogs and all people.  Penny is up-to-date with her routine shots.  Penny is currently being fostered by a volunteer.

For more information on Penny or any of the other dogs available through Home for Good Dog Rescue, please visit the Home for Good web site, call (908) 598-8212 or email contacthfg@gmail.com.
