Pepper and his sibling were left in the middle of nowhere in a very bad storm. A volunteer for the rescue was able to secure them temporarily, and they are currently together in a foster home, while we locate great adopters for them. The vet believes Pepper is under one year, but fully grown at 28 pounds. We know dogs can fill out so that is not a guaranteed final weight, but within several pounds most likely. Their personalities are silly, and they're very unique and unusual blends of what we believe to be schnauzer and heeler m,as their predominant breeds. Pepper seems more attached to his sibling, and she is not that interested in him. They are being fostered on a farm, around multiple dogs but they are in outdoor kennels, and while it is obviously better than their previous situation, we would love nothing more than to find amazing homes for these highly unique dogs. The rescue does not adopt siblings together, due to our experience with sibling aka littermate syndrome. They are smaller in person than they appear in photos. Zen Dog CT's adoption donation for Pepper is $565. This includes core vaccines (rabies, dhpp), deworming, currently on simparica trio, fecal testing, and neuter. https://form.jotform.com/ZenDogCT/zen-dog-ct-dog-adoption-application
