Meet Penny, a sweet and playful medium-sized female Pit Bull currently residing at the Shelbyville/Shelby County Animal Shelter! Poor Penny has been abandoned and brought to the shelter THREE times because she was adopted and then her family moved and wouldn’t take her with them. [Rant: What’s wrong with people?! A pet is not a piece of furniture you can leave with your old house!] She’s very sweet and loving, but absolutely needs a forever home that treats her as family and won’t leave her behind. Anyone interested in Penny, please check the link above for hours of operation and adoption requirements (meet and greets are a must!). Once your application has been approved, you get to take Penny home that day! Any additional questions, please email Chris Browder at cbrowder@cityofshelbyvillein.com or call at (317) 392-5127.
Penny is …
– medium-sized and a few years old, but we’re uncertain of her exact age.
– good with children, cats and other dogs.
– housebroken.
– spayed.
– up-to-date on vaccinations and heartworm negative.
– FREE to her future forever home!
The Shelbyville/Shelby County Animal Shelter is also the amazing place that saved Justice, the poor dog found abused, burned and abandoned in Shelby County back in November of 2018. If you would like to follow Justice’s amazing journey or find ways to help, here’s the link for the shelter’s Facebook page. (Warning: Some images of Justice are graphic and upsetting.)
