About Pepper

Meet Pepper, a charming 1.5-year-old Great Dane on the lookout for her forever family. She's a beautiful merle (blue) with a short coat, and her affectionate nature shines through whenever she's around her loved ones. Pepper thrives on companionship and loves being near her family, making her a true companion dog. This sweet girl is great with children, so she's suited for a home where kids are present. However, she does experience some separation anxiety, so her ideal home would be one where someone is around often, whether it's due to working from home or being retired. Her family is committed to finding a responsible environment where she will be cherished and given the time and security she needs. Pepper has had a rough transition, leading to her current need for a loving home, and her family is dedicated to making sure she is matched carefully to the right fit. With the right people, the sky's the limit for this loving dog. Because of her young age, she has plenty of life left to explore and make amazing memories.
