Pepper is a sweet handsome 9 year old neutered black & tan male with a docked tail and natural ears. He is about 14" tall and currently is a bit overweight at 19lb, but he's working on it, and is otherwise in fantastic shape. Pepper was born on August 29, 2015 and was very well loved and cared for by his owner until he passed away. He loves to play with toys and other small/medium dogs. He is a bit shy at first, but has quickly warmed up to visitors in the home and strangers saying hi on walks. Pepper loves to snuggle on the couch and snooze when his fosters are working, is not barky but will alert you when someone knocks or comes in, and is housebroken. Pepper's favorite things so far are cuddles, going for walks, getting brushed, and back scratches. He is a total sweetheart and would be a wonderful addition to your family.
