Penny is the happiest, silliest and most expressive dog I have met. She blended very quickly into our family. Within 30 minutes of being introduced to our 11 year old Cardigan Welch Corgi, they were drinking out of the same small water bowl at the same time, as I had not yet put out a larger water dish. Her foster family consists of human mom and dad, 11 year old male corgi and a 5 year old girl with special needs who is non-verbal. Penny gets on delightfully with all. When Penny wants to play and her senior dog brother doesn't feel like playing, Penny lays down on her side and whines, pouts and wiggles on her side to get closer to her dog brother so she can nose him and say, "Come on, play with me."
Penny does have a tendency to not realize how big she is. As such,she would fit in best with a family having children age 5 or above. A family with children under 5 would need to be good with discipline, so Penny understands she needs to watch her step around little ones.
Penny walks great on a Gentle Leader and loves her walks. She will go to her bed when asked to do so. She will also go to her kennel when asked. She is very expressive with her face and has pouting down to a science. We couldn't be more blessed having such a wonderful foster dog. She even tells her foster family when it is time to go up to bed, as she's typically the first ready for bedtime.
