The Pit Bull Pen

10/16/2025

We are still smiling from this past weekend. What an amazing event! None of it would have been possible without the love and support from our incredible community🩷!

A huge thank you to White Bluffs Brewing for letting us host our event at your amazing space, helping with set up, and spreading the word. And to Bluffstop Food Truck- your food was delicious! THANK YOU for your generosity.

Our pumpkin patch was a dream thanks to Wolfies Pumpkins for donating so many pumpkins and Cooper’s Pumpkin Patch for helping us fill it out. After the event we donated the extra pumpkins to a local elementary school! They brought smiles to even more faces.

Thank you Oakley Vinyl Vault for making our signs look amazing—your work helped everything feel polished and special.

And wow… the generosity in our auction blew us away! From full baskets to individual items, so many local businesses and friends stepped up:
Beg-N-Bark
Roscoe’s Coffee
Paw's Natural Pet Emporium LLC
Blylee's Natural Pet Food, Supplies and Grooming
EFC Equipment Feed & Pet
Basin Feed & Supply - Kennewick
Dutch Bros Coffee
Solar Spirits Distillery
Blackthorne Neighbourhood Pub
Brainstorm Cellars
Adventures Underground
BAGG Books
NBC Right Now
Tri-City Americans
Fiction Restaurant at J. Bookwalter Winery
Jokers Comedy Club
Discount Vac and Sew
Michelle Hawk.

YOU made it possible for us to raise so much for our adoptable pets. Seriously, your generosity blew us away.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for showing up, helping out, and making this event something our furry friends will benefit from for a long time. We are so lucky to have a community like this! 🐶💛ent

Dear Future Family,

My name is Penny. I was adopted when I was just a puppy, tiny, clumsy, and full of trust. I thought forever meant forever.

But one day, I wasn’t their puppy anymore. I was three years old, confused, shaking, and back behind the same kind of bars I thought I’d never see again.

Those were the people I loved most. The ones I trusted when I was a tiny puppy. And yet, they let me go. They didn’t understand me, or maybe they didn’t try.
I wasn’t wild or disobedient. I was scared. Confused. Wondering what I had done wrong. I didn’t run from them, I ran looking for them. I didn’t bark to annoy, I barked to call them back.

I had loved them my whole life. And suddenly, I didn’t understand anything. Why my bed was gone, why the voices I trusted disappeared, why the people I counted on weren’t coming back.

I wasn’t wild, I wasn’t untrainable, I wasn’t “too much.” I was just heartbroken. And still, I would follow them anywhere, just to try to understand.

Right now, I live in boarding. It’s not a home. It’s loud, it’s lonely, and every night I curl up wishing someone would remember me. I don’t have toys or a couch or someone who knows how I like my belly rubs. I just have hope. And I’m running out of ways to hold onto it.

I know I’m not perfect. I can’t live with cats. But I promise you, if you give me a chance, I’ll love you with everything I have left. I won’t ask for much, just a place to belong and someone who won’t give up on me this time.

Please don’t scroll past me. Don’t forget me.
I was somebody’s puppy once. I could be yours forever.

Love,
Penny 🧡

Share her story. Tell a friend. Come meet her. It takes one person, JUST ONE, to change EVERYTHING for her.
