About Penelope
Hi, my name is Penelope and I'm a mini Dachshund.
I am a sassy little girl, full of character and life. I love to play with people and dogs with my toys, or just to play chases. I love playing tug-of-war with my foster puppy friend, and often win. I also like to play with cats, if they let me. They seem to like chasing my tail.
I am toilet trained on puppy pads, and also go outside to the toilet. I love being out there running around and playing in the grass.
I love my food, and my foster mum calls me a little piggy at times.
I sleep in a crate at night and sleep through most of the night, but sometimes I wake up early and want a cuddle.
I like to snuggle close to my foster mum during the day when I'm tired, or snuggle on the puppy bed.
I am starting to learn to sit and come when my name is called. My foster mum always tells me I'm a sweet little girl.
I love playing with the human kids also.
I would suit any home environment, as long as I have someone to play with me and cuddle me sometimes.
Adoption details
**We will contact each enquirer from Pet Rescue within 48 hours**
Welcome to Small Paws Animal Rescue QLD.
We aim to place each of our animals with the best family possible.
Our adoption process may seem a little complex, we ask a lot of questions. But there are reasons for this.
1. Our animals in care are like our children.
2. We want to match the best humans with the animals to ensure you are happy and our animals are happy.
3. We don't want animals to come back to us. We want their family to be forever.
So our adoption process begins with an application being completed.
Once we receive the application we will assess it on face value of the answers you have provided.
Once we can determine if you sound like a good fit, we will call you to chat a bit further.
This is when we will schedule a meet and greet with your potential new family member/s.
We may need you to have more than one meet, especially if you have other pet/s that need to be introduced or children and other human family members.
We will confer with our foster carer, and advise you as soon as possible if you were successful in your meet and greet.
Once we have confirmed your success, we will arrange for the paperwork to be completed including the adoption payment.
We allow our foster carers time to say goodbye to their foster babies, it can be hard for some to give them to their new homes and we recognise all the hard work and dedication they have put in to ensure that your new family member has been safe and is ready to go to their forever home.
We will keep in contact with you for 2 weeks during a "trial" adoption period. There are terms and conditions to be met and we will advise you of these.
Once the trial period has ended we will send you the paperwork for your new family member.
At any time after this - if you need assistance you can always contact us.
