Well, you might remember a few months back that Penny got the chance to go try out for the Mighty Dog commercial. Apparently they didn’t choose to use the footage of Penny. What were they thinking? LOL Oh well. On the bright side, they did use another friend of ours who is a rescue dog as well. Her name is Sadie. So yay for Sadie!

At any rate, even though they didn’t end up using Penny for this product, they still sent us a check for her talents and good looks, (hehehe), and for fuel and our time. We of course would have jumped at the chance to try this anyway, without being paid…but what a nice little bonus!

The funny thing is that Penny has always had these little quirky things that we tease her about. Like she won’t go out the door when all the other dogs go out, she waits for you to close it and then she asks to be let out on her own. For 10 1/2 years she has also claimed all the cool air coming from the swamp cooler as her own. We tease her that she thinks we’re her personal doormen and that she owns the cool air. Well…I guess that now in a way, she could argue that she is the only dog in the house that has actually earned all those things. LOL
