Mission Accomplished: Newly Minted Penny.

Please meet our charming new Scout – Penny.
As you might know, nearly 13 year old Penny was dumped at the shelter by an unrepentant woman,
who was crudely ‘teaching the kids a lesson.’
When sweet Penny went in for affection, said cold woman was reported to have brushed her aside, annoyed.
Okay. Moving quickly on. Quickly…

Penny was sprung from the joint, and joined our ranks, on Tuesday, the 22nd.
Her favorite human there, Andrew, was on hand to send her off to her new story.

Upon exiting, she skipped right to her vehicle waiting.
First stop: The Spa.
We went to go visit Karen at Eco Dog Wash and Day Care, on Pico.

If you do not know Karen – or her amazing facility – please make it a priority.
Karen would not hear of us paying for Penny’s ‘freedom wash.’

Smelling like an herbal oasis, we next cut through town, and headed to Penny’s vet appointment.
So polite as a passenger, aside from many stares over at her driver, and a couple lean-ins for some affection, she sat
in her seat and harness, like a straight A student.
Only once did she stir.
Driving up Vermont, and stopped at a light,
looming large outside the window was a near 8′ x 8′ poster of Tom Cruise’s latest Mission Impossible installment.

Penny did not favor Ethan Hunt’s hooded self, and gave him two single, don’t-tell-her-but-hilarious, old lady barks.
And we were off.

Penny went to see the awesome folks at Montrose Pet Hospital, where
she is getting a full work-up and exam.
Such the gold star student, Penny sat right in front of me
and faced the door waiting for the compassionate Dr. Mitchell to enter.
Those brilliant ears in flight.

Today on her calendar:
Penny will be meeting her skilled and sweet foster parent, Michele.

Thank you to all of you that were – and are – rooting for her.
She has been heartbroken, sitting in the shelter, uncertain
as to what happened…or why.

The old gal was far from a worthless, pitched Penny….
She is a gem, and her happiness…worth millions.
