Penny is a unique blend - Labrador and Basset. She's mostly a sociable Labrador with slightly shortened legs.

Rub on her head and she'll follow you anywhere!

She'll have a good time with kids, with other dogs, or all by herself. She'll go out and play in the snow, but be just as happy curled up by the fire afterward. Take her on a car trip and she'll fall fast asleep.

Although Penny's a little slow to get started given her age, she moves around pretty well and has no unusual health problems - she hardly seems like a 12-year-old!

She's perfectly housebroken and crate trained. She seems quite interested in television - not sure whether she prefers drama, comedy or reality shows. And every year at Christmas, Penny has worn the Santa hat while the kids opened their presents.

Now Penny's in a difficult spot because her owner in Chesterfield, Virginia is going through a divorce and must relocate to a home where dogs aren't allowed, and no other relatives are in a good position to take her. The move is about a week away, so we're getting the word out - help us by sharing poor Penny's story and finding her a new forever home!
