My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

My name is Penelope, and I am the sweetest, friendliest, most outgoing “BeagleBull” you might ever meet! Yes, BeagleBull is a thing. I came to Forever Loved from the county after being found as a stray, and it was truly in the nick of time. I had severe anemia, I was very underweight, and I had a huge mass hanging that made everyone cringe. I received all the loving care that a sick girl could wish for and here I am, ready for my forever home! I am 11 years old (but I play ball like a puppy) and I now weight 32.8 lbs. Besides great medical care and lots of loving from the volunteers, I’ve also gotten the best post-operative care in my foster home. I am reliably house trained, I ride well in the car, I walk quite nicely on the leash, and I have very nice house manners. I love to snuggle up on my blanket or bed, and you’ll barely hear a peep from me. I love stuffy toys to pieces, literally, so I need tough chew toys, but I have a tennis ball that is a favorite and I sleep with it, carry it, and love to play fetch and “keep away.” I am great with kids! I don’t jump up, and I display a very nice confidence around novel things. I’ve not had much experience around other dogs, they kind of scare me a bit, but I don’t “lose it” when they pass by. If a stranger dog on a walk comes too close, I will bark to let them know I’m not comfortable in that moment. My foster mom moves me off the path of the incoming dog and helps me feel safe and comfortable. I’m learning very fast! I think it’s fair to say I am easy to have around, and there hasn’t been any handling that I haven’t been a champ at! Please apply to meet me, I’m so grateful that the rest of my life will be the best of my life - with you!

More about this rescue

Forever Loved Pet Sanctuary (FLPS) is the only senior-only animal rescue in Maricopa County, Arizona. Formed in 2012 as a non-profit 501[c][3] organization, the focus of FLPS is to save senior animals who are often overlooked by providing them the opportunity to thrive in a safe and caring environment. FLPS serves a public need by offering housing to a limited number of senior pets.

This safe haven, takes the burden of temporary care and housing of senior animals off of local shelters. Inevitably, local shelters resort to euthanizing these abandoned, senior animals at an alarming rate. According to a 2012 statistics report, Maricopa County Animal Care and Control (MCACC) euthanizes one animal every eight minutes it is open to the public. Euthanasia for senior residents is the primary option for most local shelters because they tend to focus their efforts on a high adoption model that includes younger “more adoptable” animals. FLPS works with local shelters and rescues to identify the senior animals in need and provide a streamlined process for interested men, women and families who wish to adopt.
