Penny Silky Terrier Mix Mentor, OH

Penny is a 4 year old, 8 lb, very sweet, quiet little girl who is recovering from life in a puppy mill. She arrived to us with swollen, infected paws (no doubt from her wire bottomed cell), ear infections and a very deep ulcer in her right eye. Penny is nearly fully recovered from all her ailments and her special eye ulcer treatment has saved her from undergoing surgery! She is a trooper! Now Penny is a happy little lap dog who is finally learning how to chew on a rope and squeak a toy! She is still working on gaining weight and we’re taking it the slow, healthy way.


Penny is a doll, she has the most precious little face and sweetest eyes! Her gentle, quiet personality just adds to her preciousness. Penny will always be at your side or on your lap. She’ll greet you at the door and will be very happy you are home. She is, however, a mill rescue and needs to gain your trust. It won’t take long, but a gentle, confident hand is needed until that trust is there. Penny would be happiest in an adult home without active children. She does enjoy being a part of a pack as well and would very much welcome a brother or sister (or both). She is very non-aggressive and gets along well with all other dogs. She also pays no attention to cats.
