Hello again!  I’m Ocean Penny.  I came back to DDRTX because my humans couldn’t spend as much time with me as before and I got super lonely and sad.  They had to go to a place called work and couldn’t stay home so I’m looking for a forever home where my humans can be with me all the time.  I had a rough start in life and I’m looking for a safe, comfortable, stable place that a special human can give me.

I never learned to go outside like other dogs so I use pee pads when I need to use the little girls’ room.  I like getting my pretty harness on and going on walks.  I stay close and mind my manners.  My real favorite thing is hanging out with my human.  Right now I’m hanging out with my foster mom.  She works from home so I sleep in a chair next to her so she doesn’t get lonely.  When she gets up, I follow in case she needs my help.  I also help her know she’s not alone by booping my nose on her leg.  It’s my way of saying, “I’m here if you need me”!  I don’t mind if there are other dogs around.  I just kinda keep to myself and stick close to my human.  I have a foster sister kitten that is nice and I like cuddling with her. 

Foster mom says I’m always wagging my tail and am the sweetest girl ever!  I also look very adorable in the pretty outfits she puts on me!

If you live in the South Central part of Texas and would like to meet Ocean, please put in your application today!
