Meet Pepper, the enchanting little lady who is just waiting for her furever home! 🐾💙 At around 2 years old and weighing in at a perfect 37 lbs, this compact beauty is basically the ideal lap companion—trust us, cuddle sessions with her will change your life! Pepper’s journey to this point has been anything but easy. Once a young momma dog, she bravely raised her puppies, all of whom have found homes.

Now, this resilient pup is navigating the ups and downs of shelter life, and she’s ready to find a loving family to call her own. Having faced the world as a stray and always been in survival mode, Pepper is understandably a bit shy when first meeting new faces. But just wait! Once she lets down her guard and welcomes you into her circle of trust, you’ll discover a heart brimming with love, joy, and affection that will make your heart swell every single day. 🌈💕 Imagine coming home to her wagging tail and sweet face, ready to greet you with all the love she has to offer! Though Pepper is not quite ready for the dog park just yet, she’s proving to be an excellent companion for human friends. She’s a superstar on the leash, eager to join you on all your adventures. And guess what? She’s never soiled in her kennel, which means she will transition smoothly to being house trained in your home. Now the only catch? Pepper needs to be the only pet in her new home. But with the love she has to give, who could need anything more? 🥰 If you have room in your heart for this sweet girl, you can make a difference and change her life forever. Pepper is ready for a family that values trust, love, and plenty of lap time!
