Meet the enchanting Pepper, everyone! ❤️ This astoundingly lovable shepherd/lab-ish girl is ready to steal hearts from the moment you meet her! With her soft caramel fur and dreamy natural eyeliner, she’s got that Hollywood glam look down pat. But beneath that gorgeous exterior, she’s got a spirit that’s just bursting with potential—especially for zoomies! 🐕✨ If you believe in love at first sight (or should I say at first treat?), Pepper is your gal! Initially, she might be a little shy, peeking out from behind her favorite human’s leg, tail wagging ever-so-slightly as she sizes you up. But once she determines you’re safe and kind, get ready for a massive heartbreak moment! 💖 She transforms into the ultimate cuddle bug, eager to be your shadow, your snuggle champion, and your forever friend—she’ll think you hung the moon! 🌙 For the past year, this darling has been living in a loving foster home, where she’s mastered being a Very Good House Dog™. She’s crate trained (she even thinks her crate is a spa retreat!), walks like a dream on a leash, and rides calmly in the car. Not once has she mistaken your shoe for a snack! Talk about a polite roommate! 🙌 Now, let’s talk about her dynamic personality! Pepper has a whole crew of pet friends at her foster home—including dog buddies, multiple cats, and even cute little kittens! It’s pure paradise! She’s like the dorm RA of the animal world, keeping the peace and spreading joy. And when it comes to her dog friends, she looks to the more confident ones for guidance, rolling over and offering sweet kisses as a way of saying, “Lead the way, bestie!” 🐶💖 Pepper thrives when surrounded by older, gentle kids (ages 8-15) who can appreciate her unique needs. She has her own fan club membership—you can be part of that too! Once she feels safe and loved, she’s all in for belly rubs and cozy snuggles! But chaos and surprise hugs? Not her jam! Pepper needs a calm home with kind hearts who can help her blossom at her own pace. But wait, there’s more! Once Pepper warms up to you, she’ll follow you everywhere, snuggling up to your side while her tail spins like a helicopter at the thought of snack time! She does well with other happy-go-lucky dogs as her support squad but needs to steer clear of anxious canines—she seeks good vibes only! 🌟 Whether it’s an apartment or a house, Pepper is adaptable. She just needs a warm, cozy place to decompress and a furry friend to teach her how to embrace life outside. She’s not about instant friendships; she’s all about lifelong bonds! So if you think you can shower this sweet girl with love and patience, you’ll have the most heartwarming relationship ever. 💛🐾 Join Pepper on this incredible journey, and if your heart is ready for a snuggly, silly, treat-dancing lovebug, *apply through the Buddy App* today! Who knows, this might just be the best decision you'll ever make! 🥰 *Disclaimer: Adopters must meet and/or adopt Pepper in person!*
