Female Dog, Belgian Shepherd Malinois
Belgian Shepherd Malinois / Mastiff / Mixed (Medium Coat)
Description:
Penny is a 12 week old shepherd-mix who has been living it up with her three siblings and three resident dogs (in foster care) for the last two weeks. Penny is a smart, active, and confident girl. Among her siblings, she's usually the head of the pack, curious and lively. In addition to being extremely clever, Penny is very affectionate and eager to connect. Penny will need daily exercise, potty training, and a regular structure around which she can integrate into her new family. She would love a dog sibling and is untested with cats. *Puppies can be extremely mouthy, and Penny and her siblings are no exception. The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering âPawsitivity Bucksâ with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw!Please note: Our Santa Cruz locationâs Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end âmeet and greetsâ (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If youâd like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.
