Penny

This little girl was dragged into the shelter by her owner. Reason for surrender? "She keeps having puppies." His response to the suggestion of having her spayed - "I don't have time to fool around with all that."

So she huddled in the corner of her shelter cage, terrified and not sure what she did wrong or why she'd been abandoned. We couldn't leave her there, so she's a WAG rescue dog now.

But this isn't really a sad story, because the upside for this adorable girl is the opportunity to find a family that truly loves and appreciates her sweet nature.

A new start, a new name - Penny. First important step on the road to her new life is her upcoming spay. A simple solution to the puppy problem.

Too bad there's not such an easy fix for human stupidity.
