Hi, I’m Pepper!
I’m a soft, sweet girl with a gentle heart and a playful spirit. I love a good game of fetch just as much as I love curling up for a cozy snuggle session. Whether we’re running around outside or settling in for quiet time, I’m happiest just being by your side.
I get along with everyone — people, kids, dogs, even cats. If you’ve got a heartbeat, I probably want to be your friend.
I’ll be honest — I do take a little time to warm up to new humans. I just like to make sure you’re safe and kind. But once I decide you’re my person, I give you my whole heart. When you come home, I’ll be so excited that I might even leap right into your arms. That’s just my way of saying, “I missed you more than anything.”
If you’re looking for a loyal companion who loves to play, loves to cuddle, and loves you with her entire soul, I think we might be a perfect match.
I could benefit from a little extra reinforcement with my basic training. I know some commands, but when the toys come out, my excitement sometimes takes over and I momentarily forget my manners. With a quick pause in play and a reminder that the game doesn’t continue until I listen, I refocus quickly — I just need a bit more practice.
I’m fully potty trained and kennel trained, though I’d much rather be curled up next to you on the couch or snuggled in bed. At heart, I’m a playful girl who loves structure but absolutely adores being close to my people.
💙 A few important things to know about me: I recently had a mast cell tumor removed from my front right leg, and I’m still finishing up my recovery. I’m happy to do meet and greets, but I can’t go to my forever home until I’m fully healed — which should be around February 1st. I promise I’ll be worth the wait. 💕
