Ideal Home:
Pepper and her 6 siblings came into Animal Control care at only ONE day old! Sadly their mama passed away while giving birth to them. At 1 week old, they came to us and have been in their amazing foster homes ever since. They've received the very best care and have all been able to be around adult doggos that have been their surrogate mamas so they've had the opportunity to be well socialised with other dogs and have also had the benefit of staying with their littermates, which means they have had the ability to learn all the good things any pupper needs to learn from their littermates too. Because they have all been bottle fed, they are also very affectionate and social pups with hoomans too.
Pepper is still a baby so she will need someone home with her during the day. This beautiful little girl is full of love and life!
Pepper skips and jumps her way through the day, always excited to explore and play but she also adores cuddles and will happily curl up in your lap for some cozy quiet time.
Pepper is in a foster home with two of her siblings as well as two adult dogs, who she loves to play with and follow around. She would love a home with another dog to learn all the good things from and play with. While she has not met cats, she is at the right age to learn about them so we believe with proper introductions, she would be fine in a home with a cat.
Pepper has been around kids since she came into our care. We believe she would do well in a home with kids 5+ who are gentle and kind but that would love to play with her too. Pepper is not shy at all and adores meeting people so we think she'd be fine in a busy household with heaps of people to meet and play with and get cuddles with. She's not a couch potato, so will need hoomans who will enjoy taking her for daily walks and weekend adventures, as well as someone to cuddle up with on the couch in the evenings.
Her foster mum says: "Pepper brings her own special kind of magic to the world. Full of love, personality, and playful charm, she's sure to steal your heart the moment you meet her. She would fit into any home where there's lots of affection"
Pepper will need a family committed to making sure she learns all the things a good pupper should know so she can grow into a good doggy citizen.
