Penny... Hi, my name is Penny, and I am a 2 1/2-year-old redhead. My twin sister Copper and I came to GRR when our owners could no longer care for us. I used to live mostly outside, but now I get to live indoors with my foster mom and dad, two other Golden Retrievers, and a cat. The other Goldens are boys and play really hard. Sometimes I play with them, but when they get too rough, I bow out and go to my foster parents for safety. My favorite thing is to be loved on! I don’t get on the furniture, but when my foster mom or dad sits on the floor with me, I cuddle up next to them and lay my head in their lap.

I also love to get out of the house and go on walks with my foster family. I am great on a leash and I love to impress everyone with how obedient I am. I am a little chubby, but I have lost noticeable weight in the last couple of weeks (and if you adopt me, I will even tell you my weight-loss secrets!). I went running with my foster dad the other day and I did fantastic! I couldn’t stop smiling after we got back.

I would do great in a home with or without children, with other dogs or as a single pet. When I first got here, I liked to bark at the cat, but I am starting to lose interest in that furry thing. Most important, I have lots of love to give, so I really want to be with someone who will let me give them attention—and who will give me lots of love in return. I know that I will make that someone very happy! If you want to meet, just let me know.
