SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Peggy

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

"Hi there, my name is Peggy and boy am I a ball of energy. I have not had the best start to life so would love a second chance at happiness. I can be a little wary in new situations and meeting new people, so would love an experienced and patient home. One that has the time to put in the extra training I need as I have not had much. I am very food motivated so will pick things up quickly. I can be very puppy like when comfortable around my people so require a home with older teenagers or an only adult home, one that is confident around larger than life personalities. The team here have mixed me with other dogs, so I could go to a home with an existing dog. One that is social and has a similar play style to me. A dog that is happy to share their space and their humans. I have yet to be cat tested. If you think I am the dog for you please contact the canine team for more information."
