About Pepper

(06/04/2020) Pepper is heartworm positive and our rescue is treating her; she will be available for local adoption (1 hour drive from Wake Forest, NC) while she is in treatment. Pepper loves to be by your side and doesn't really think being alone is cool. So much so, bathroom privacy doesn't even mean much to her. She'll be happy to scratch at the closed door notifying you of your accidental error in judgement. Pepper would be fine as an only dog or to fill out a household with other friendly pups to be her siblings. She would definitely do best in a home and not an apartment, condo or townhome...those shared walls may hear her beautiful bark more often than they may like. She actually spends most of her day relaxing in her foster mom's office, sleeping or chewing on an antler or yak chew. Despite Pepper's heartworm treatment, she occasionally gets the zoomies when going outside, indicating she will enjoy some playful activity in the future. In the meantime, she is kept entertained with sniff mats, lick pads, and chews to keep her calm and happy. Speaking of chewing, Pepper is more like 'gumming it'; her cute smile and speckled tongue have a handful of teeth. Because of this soft food is better for her. This shiny black onyx of a girl is good with all dogs, kiddos and kitties!! She has that easy-loveable personality. She is already house trained, crate trained, good walking on a leash, loves car rides and the list goes on. No fence; no worries...Pepper is happy to hang with her people and be a bit of a couch potato! What more could you really ask for? Her deep appreciation for her human makes you feel truly cherished. She will only ask for the same devotion and affection for her in return. She does have some separation anxiety and being with her people really makes her happy. You can expect some initial barking when she is left in her crate, so someone who is home a good amount of the time is best for Pepper. She is happy to sleep on her bed or snuggled up in bed with you, so that's a great option. Pepper has some cute wrinkles that make her extra cute. She is new to our rescue and is being treated for some skin condition. She is doing well, and her beautiful black, furry body is filling in nicely. We are currently checking on her spay status and she will be spayed before adoption. She is going to be such an amazing companion - her foster mom just loves her dearly! As part of Pepper's $300 adoption fee, he will be neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.
