About Pepper

Meet Pepper! This 4–5-month-old Chihuahua mix is the ultimate lap warmer and sunshine lover. She adores spending time with her people and finds joy in playing with dogs of all sizes, though she can be a bit possessive of her lap and may growl if another dog tries to steal her human's attention. Pepper doesn’t bark much, walks well on a leash, and is currently learning her potty training skills. However, when it comes to crate training, she has some strong opinions and is vocal about her displeasure with being kenneled. If you’re seeking a small companion who thrives on cuddles, sunshine, and being close to you, Pepper may be the perfect fit. Just keep in mind that all adopters need to come to Colorado to meet their newest furry family member, as the rescue does not transport dogs. Pepper is currently fostered in Mead, CO. Ready to add this little bundle of joy to your family?
