Penny A507354 • 3-yr-old • Female • Boxer/Pit mix • Pen 245 • Arrived July 13, 2008

Save Penny, a 3-year-old boxer/pit bull mix.

Penny is a pretty, petite girl who has had the bad luck of going to homes that weren’t right for her. Her first adopter had her for all of four hours before finding out he couldn’t keep a dog and bringing her to Town Lake Animal Center. Her second family returned her when she didn’t get along with their cat. Now she must find a new home -- and soon -- because TLAC doesn't have room to keep her. Aside from cats, Penny is a well-mannered, friendly girl. She is excellent on a leash and good with other dogs. When she’s out walking on Lady Bird Lake trail, she wants to say hello to every person she passes. She’s a smart girl who is alert to people’s wishes. She is housebroken, knows “sit” and can catch a ball in mid-air. When the right home finds Penny, she will fill it with fun and love.

Penny may also be fostered if you don’t have room for another permanent dog. Email PennyATtownlakedogsDOTcom for more information or visit the shelter.
