pecial Considerations

Pennys are very easy to house train. They can easily learn to pee outside the house within a week or so and can learn many tricks in short span of time.

The downside to the Pennys are their shedding. Pennys shed year round and do not stop shedding.

Also, Pennys have tendency to get very jelous easily toward other dogs and it is advised to keep only one Pennys. [Kiss, Jemima. "New London title builds on web community", journalism.co.uk . March 9, 2006 ( [http://www.journalism.co.uk/2/articles/51750.php] ). Retrieved on 2007-10-11]
