Pepper

Our sweet smiley girl is looking for her forever home!
One pink nose, endless cuddles, and a vacancy for a soulmate 💗 (23.6 kgs)

This clever girl is looking for a very important person: her bestie, adventure buddy, and full time provider of belly rubs. Personal space? She’s heard of it and would prefer you reconsider.

In saying this, Pepper can be very independent and shows no separation anxiety when left alone on a work day, and usually sleeps out on the couch by herself (although she would definitely prefer to be on the bed).

We believe she was previously used for breeding. Her soft, saggy belly tells part of her story, and she still carries a deep fear of other dogs. Is reactive towards dogs and cats, still regaining her confidence socially. Despite her difficult start, she has so much love to give. She tenderly cares for her toys like little babies, keeping a collection of precious dependants who will, naturally, be moving in with her.

Pepper is timid at first, but once she warms to you (in about five minutes) she is forever your loyal shadow.

She is house trained, not destructive, and extraordinarily smart. She responds beautifully to training and loves learning with someone she trusts. She’ll also announce when someone enters the property, because apparently she manages reception, but she is certainly not a nuisance barker.

Her hobbies include sunbaking, cuddling, collecting belly rubs, and following her person from room to room in case they accidentally have an experience without her. **She absolutely adores her walks.** Bring out the lead and suddenly her very busy schedule of lounging and toy parenting is cleared. A lovely sniffy stroll with her favourite person? Best part of the day.

Her perfect match

She needs a home where she is the only pet, with no cats, and someone who wants a close companion to include in life’s adventures. Think quiet outings, sniffy walks, sunny afternoons, and evenings spent together with absolutely no doubt about who gets the best spot on the couch.

She must always remain on lead outside a securely fenced space. Dog parks, off lead outings, and canine social clubs are not her scene. We aren’t asking her to love other dogs. Our goal is to help her feel safe enough to tolerate their presence calmly, with space and support.

A trainer will be included to continue the work we’ve started, helping you build her confidence together.

If your dream girl has a pink nose, a small family of stuffed toys, and an unwavering belief that everything is better when you’re touching, she would like to apply for the position of your forever bestie. And she will guard that love with her life.
