I leashed her up and walked her outside. She was stressed out while being outside and began to high pitch bark. I brought her back in and moved her kennel closer to where i start cleaning in the am to see if taking her out first will help prevent her from stressing out. As I placed into new kennel she was high pitched vocalizing in kennel.

5/19/2026: Penny was high pitched barking in kennel in the am. I was able to leash , she was little flinchy with whale eyes, once leashed walked her out to the runs.

I walked her back to kennel. After am walking she began jumping up in kennel vocalizing. Kennel was covered and had offered enrichment before heading to lunch. As I came back to check on her she had painted her kennel and spilled her water everywhere in her kennel where her bedding was soaked.

๐Ÿ’œ Volunteer Notes:

I feel like I don't even need to explain what drew me to Susana girl because LOOK AT HER! She's absolutely stunning. And add a little cropped tail that is wiggling in excitement because you just baby talked to her? Add to cart immediately. This girl walks like a dream on the leash and is so gentle and sweet. I tried to get her into the grass for pics so I could really contrast her beautiful markings for photos but she informed me that the grass was much too icky for a princess like her. Even with dirt as her background, she is absolutely stunning in her photos. We used her for multiple temp tests with other dogs because she is such a calm, even temperament. She was very excited to meet the other dogs and was so playful if they were down for that! She seems like a really fun girl who would love to join for some fun outdoor activities but would also be happy to lounge on the couch and cuddle with her humans. We love when a stunning girl also has a beautiful personality to match! I hope that this sweet girl can make it out of the shelter, she absolutely deserves that and more๐Ÿค
