Pepper - 6 Month Old Border Collie X Jack (Trial)

Introducing Pepper, a gorgeous 6-month-old Border collie X Jack Russell terrier.

Pepper is a lively and intelligent puppy with a loving nature. She is playful, curious, and always eager to learn. Pepper is a sweet girl who enjoys both active playtime and cuddling up for a nap. She responds well to basic commands and is highly trainable due to her intelligence. She is crate trained and working on housebreaking.

She is friendly with children, and curious about other dogs. Pepper wasn’t socialised well as a puppy. She will do well in a home with a dog older than her, who is submissive and calm. A dog who she can learn from.

When meeting new dogs, she will need a slow introduction but with the right guidance and patience should become a social butterfly in no time.

Pepper is still young; she will need daily physical and mental stimulation. She is learning to walk on a lead and is excelling following her older foster fur buddy . She will be great for long walks in the future and in the meantime will need yard exercise , playtime, and interactive toys are a must. She would thrive in an active home where she can get plenty of exercise and mental engagement.

She would do well with a family, a single person who has plenty of time for her, or a couple who have experience with active breeds. A home with a secure yard where she can run and play would be perfect.

Pepper is very quick to learn new tricks and commands. She has a strong herding instinct, typical of Border Collies, so no pocket pets. She's only a small girl with not much growing to do. Pepper weighs 9kg.

She is a sweet girl who loves cuddling up with her family on the lounge. Pepper is happy with part time workers as long as she’s getting her daily walks, training and attention she can be left along with a fur sibling or with loads of toys and treats.

If you can see Pepper being a part of your family, please apply.
