Find a penny and pick it up, all day long you'll have good luck! That describes me, Penny, a Dachshund and hound mix, with a shiny coat the color of dark copper. I am twelve weeks old and my "penny" luck started by being rescued with my sister, Jessie, when we were found without a home. I hope to share my good fortune by being the lucky penny that brings you joy and happiness to my forever home. Do you know the machines that take a penny, make it grow, and imprint an image of the great place you visited as a keepsake? Well, this Penny  will also grown and the imprint will be your love and training. You won't need to remember the experience, I will be with you to enjoy this happy experience together, everyday.

Every animal that comes into the CARA program is here because one or more events occurred  that led to this animal needing not only a home, but a person or family to love and protect them. Each animal has been loved and cared for by a small and determined group of people who want nothing more than to know each animal is safe for the rest of his or her life. Thank you for looking to adopt!
