Meet Pepper! This charming 3-year-old, 16-pound Yorkie has a sweet and sensitive personality. Initially timid around new people and environments, she blossoms into a playful and affectionate companion once she feels secure. Known for her love of women, Pepper warms up quickly but may take time with men; gentle introductions have helped her progress significantly. Pepper thrives in a calm atmosphere and would do best in a home without young children, though she can comfortably coexist with respectful older kids. With other dogs, she shows a preference for those around her size or smaller. Walks, lounging on the patio, and soft cuddles on the couch are her favorite activities. She may not be into toys, but you'll find her enjoying the shade and offering joyful wiggle zoomies! This little girl is house trained and knows how to signal when it's time to go outside. She also appreciates her crate as a safe haven, demonstrating good behavior when left alone. While still mastering basic commands and recall, especially at the dog park, she’s making admirable strides. Pepper seeks a loving, patient home where she can build confidence and trust. Once she knows she’s safe, her true personality—a sweet, cuddly, and occasionally bossy companion—shines through. Adopt Pepper today and experience the joy of having an incredibly devoted friend!
