About Pepper

Meet Pepper, a delightful 8-month-old blue merle Great Dane, who was rescued from abandonment in Texas and has since found her way to a caring foster home in Denver, Colorado. Pepper has a gentle demeanor and is surprisingly low-energy for a puppy. She is a friendly girl who quickly warms up to new people, often choosing to follow her foster around or rest her head in their lap. Her foster family notes that Pepper interacts well with children, making her a potential emotional support animal for someone looking for a warm companion. This sweet pup does not engage in rough play or jumping, takes treats gently, and does not have any issues with resource guarding. She enjoys the company of other dogs and can get along well with an older dog who might appreciate a calm playmate. Pepper is potty trained, though she is still learning to indicate when she needs to go out. She's been reliable in holding it until taken outside and has maintained a clean slate in the house. While her crate training is a work in progress, she sleeps soundly on a dog bed in her foster's room. She walks nicely on a leash and adapts well during outings, though she is still adjusting to loud noises from farm equipment. Currently, Pepper enjoys the tranquil life in her foster home, where she can play in a pond and relax with a gentle nature. With her soft coat and cheerful disposition, she is just looking for a loving family to share her life with. Think you could be the perfect match? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
