My story

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

Adoptable in: MA, RI, NH, CT, and VT

Good with dogs: Yes
Good with cats: Unknown, likely yes
Good with kids: Yes, dog-savvy children
Crate trained: Yes
House Trained: Mostly

Penelope will melt your heart with her sweet eyes! She is a spunky young puppy but is the most loyal companion you will ever wish for. She loves to follow her human everywhere and will find a bath mat or floor to lie on to be nearby. She is incredibly responsive to training and learning more and more every day. She sits well and is learning other commands like no and off.

Penelope is excellent with dogs of all sizes as she has been fostered with dogs from 10 pounds to 85 pounds. She is submissive to the older dogs and fits right into the pack. While she has not met a cat, we suspect she might do well with dog-savvy cats given her gentle demeanor. She is so loving with kids and would love to have an active family of her own.

Penelope’s house training has improved with time. While she’s not 100% housebroken just yet, and might have an accident or two early on in a new environment, she learns the routine quickly. She just needs a little more time for consistency! However, she is fully crate trained and while still learning to walk on a leash, has already come so far.

Could this beautiful brindle baby be the one you’ve been waiting for?

More about this rescue

Our mission at Last Hope K9 Rescue is to save every possible dog we can from being euthanized within high-volume kill shelters throughout the U.S.

As the literal “last hope” of nearly every animal we serve, we work tirelessly to place each one within a stable, loving environment that can act as either their forever home, or the gateway to their forever home. We also strive to ensure that all of our adoptions and foster placements are the optimal fit for everyone involved, including our dogs. This leads to our second goal: enriching human lives through canine companionship. To us, you can’t have one without the other.

Lastly, we promote animal welfare by lobbying important initiatives that both protect and give voice to the voiceless. By fostering an environment of collaboration with other organizations that share our goals, and working together instead of in competition, we find that we accomplish more.
