Introduction
Hi I am a female pure bred Shi Tzu I was born may 29, 2005 in a pet shop somewhere in manila Philippines. The first few weeks of my life were not as wonderful as my life now, being raised in a cage w/ my mom I hardly knew is not really the life a cute and playful puppy like me deserves. The only friend I have is Brutus the big black Labrador that always sat lazily in his cage besides ours. It was really sad and boring just sitting inside our cage everyday; when one beautiful Sunday afternoon one and a half months after I was born, I was bought by this wonderful family I called my own today. My real name is Penny of the wishing Bone, all of my friends called me penny except for my brother Karu who jokingly calls me Bruce after the shark in finding nemo (we love to play shark)J. I really enjoy my home and get to do many things: long walks around the neighborhood with grand pa, playing with my toys, sleeping in the big bed, chasing chickens at the farm at weekends and having all the doggy treats that I want. My daddy even graciously offered to help me put together this web site so I could make cyber pals and engage in virtual play and activities I have the most wonderful family in the world they love me very much, and they always bring me everywhere they go, I even have to seat at the front of the car. I have my own bed but most of the time I sleep besides grandma I have lots and lots of toys that I always play w/ my brother Karu. I enjoy playing w/ my friends in fact on my last birthday my daddy even invited them all for a really cool birthday party all of them came spyke, boo, paw,Sabrina,cornbeef,trish,colon,dj,janno,jaya and ugly . We really have a great time playing around and eating all the wonderful treats that my daddy prepared for my special day. I have lots of friends now but sometimes I wonder what happened to my old pal brutus… . I love making new friends and would like very much to get to know you better. So please look around and let me know what you think!

Penny, congratulations for becoming the Dog of the Week Tell us a little bit more about yourself?
I do have a bubbly character, I like to play with my toys,run around the house,chase chickens at the farm and try on different clothes that my grandma make and buy for me . I hate lightning, thunder and mean dogs. I want to have babies someday and most of the time i just want the feeling to be love everytime.
