Notes from SNARR Northeast Animal Rescue

*Name: Penny*Age: approx DOB 7/11/25*Current Weight: 25 lbs *Adoption fee: $550Meet Penny — our little miracle girl with a heart as strong as her spirit! Penny’s story began on a chilly October day, when she was found wandering all alone, unable to use her back legs. Despite countless tests and exams, no one could determine what had happened—nothing was broken, but Penny couldn’t walk. But Penny had other plans. Placed into a loving foster home surrounded by furry friends, she found inspiration, encouragement, and the will to fight. Step by step, day by day… Penny did the impossible. Against all odds, this brave girl is now walking and running just like every dog deserves to. She has a little bit of a wobble and her back legs can become a little weak at times, but that doesn't stop her. And her personality? Just as incredible as her journey. Penny is a total social butterfly who absolutely loves other dogs of all shapes and sizes. She thrives in the company of her canine companions and would be happiest in a home with a playful pup sibling. She’s also wonderful with kids, making her a perfect addition to a fun, active family. (Cats, though? Not her thing.)Penny is more than just a survivor—she’s a symbol of resilience, joy, and second chances. All she’s missing now is a forever home to call her own. Could you be the happy ending to Penny’s incredible story? To apply to adopt, fill out an application at https://snarrnortheast.org/adopt/PLEASE CLICK HERE FOR FAQs
