Each week, the Independent highlights an animal available for adoption at Baypath Humane Society in Hopkinton. This week’s adoptable animal is 3-month-old Penelope.

Here is Baypath’s description of Penelope:

“Penelope is an adorable, sweet and playful puppy who is ready to find her forever family! Full of puppy charm and curiosity, she loves meeting new people, making doggy friends and exploring everything the world has to offer.

“This happy girl is as social as they come — she truly loves everyone she meets and thrives on attention, playtime and being part of the action. Whether she’s romping around with other dogs or leaning in for some extra pets, Penelope is always ready to brighten your day.

“Like any young pup, she’s eager to learn all the important puppy basics — training, routines and good manners — and she’ll do best with a family excited to guide her as she grows. With her affectionate nature and playful spirit, she has all the makings of an amazing lifelong companion.

“Penelope would especially love a home with kids where she can grow up surrounded by love, play and plenty of fun.

“Ready to add a little extra love (and a lot of puppy energy!) to your life? Penelope can’t wait to meet you!”
