Pepper's Story...
Cuddle bug, lap dog-that’s Pepper
You may ask why would a Golden Rescue have a black Chihuahua/Pug mix (Chug) on their website. Pepper and her Golden Retriever sister, Princess, where abandoned at that shelter by their owners. When we went to rescue Princess we found out that Pepper was scheduled to be euthanized, we could not leave her behind to face that fate.
Pepper takes a few minutes to warm up to new people but if you get down on her level she will jump in your lap or roll over for a belly rub. She is great with other dogs and loves to play a rousing game of tug of war with her sister Princess. Her other favorite game is to keep the planet save from “CATS”. She does not hurt the cats she lives with in her foster home but loves to chase them.
If Pepper is not sitting with you watching TV or playing with Princess or scouting for cats, she will settle down into her kennel for a nap. Although when she sees her leash come out she is ready to go for a nice leisurely walk.
Pepper would do best in an adult only home as she is timid around young children.
If you have room in your home (Pepper is little she does not take up much space) and room in your heart (There Pepper will take up a lot of space because she is so sweet) please consider adopting Pepper.
Note: We would like Pepper and Princess to be adopted together but will consider separating.
Training:  Basic commands. Crate trained
Compatibility: Good with Dogs, Chases Cats, No small children
Activity Level: Laid back
 Status:  Available

Why Adoption is a Great Option

Pepper, a Scottsdale Chihuahua/Pug dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua/Pug for sale in Scottsdale, or seeking a Chihuahua/Pug dog from a breeder in Scottsdale.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Scottsdale already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Scottsdale breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Chihuahua/Pug breeders who help with Chihuahua/Pug rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Scottsdale paves the way for another one to be saved.
