Notes from TLC K9 Rescue

Penelope is ready for her forever family! ❤️ Penelope’s Story ❤️ This is why we rescued Penelope. She was just a puppy living in an area where cargo trucks were constantly coming and going. Sadly, many dogs in that area were being killed because drivers couldn’t see them. We simply couldn’t leave this sweet baby there to fend for herself. And even if she survived, she would have eventually starved or become pregnant and continued the cycle of unwanted puppies. Today, Penelope is 10 months old, 35 lbs, 4DX negative, fully vaccinated, and spayed. ❤️

I’m so happy this sweet girl is safe and in our care. She deserves a life filled with love, safety, and a family of her very own and possibly another sweet doggie friend for her to bond and play with. ❤️ If you think Penelope might be the girl you’ve been looking for, please apply to adopt her at www.tlck9rescue.org. ❤️

What happens next

  1. Contact TLC K9 Rescue using the button. AdoptNearby does not take applications.
  2. They will send you their application or ask a few questions about your home.
  3. Most organizations arrange a meet, sometimes a home visit, then a small adoption fee that usually covers spay or neuter and vaccines. That fee is paid to TLC K9 Rescue, never to AdoptNearby.
  4. Read the dogs care guide so you arrive prepared.
