Meet Pepper, a 10-pound “little bit of dynamite” in the cutest, tiniest package. She’s a young female short-coat Chihuahua (white) who is all heart with people—sweet, submissive, and the kind of pup who would crawl into your lap and stay there if you let her. She’s about 2 years old, spayed, and ready to trade survival-mode for the good life with you.
Pepper is a total marshmallow with humans, including kids, and she loves close companionship. She came in as a stray and has clearly had to fend for herself at times. Her “I’ve got this” bossy spirit is why when it comes to other dogs, Pepper can coexist in the right setup, but she won’t want to share her personal space, kennel, or food with other dogs. This guarding behavior is why we do not kennel her with other dogs, but do allow her to play in the yard with her canine peers. We think she’ll do best as an only dog or in a home with an experienced adopter who will respect her boundaries with other dogs and who will help her keep the peace through slow introductions.
If what you want is a small dog who is devoted to her person, wants to be close, and will happily be your snuggle sidekick, Pepper is your girl.
Pepper is located in Hondo, Texas.
Pepper is Heartworm + but will be treated.
Pepper is Chagas negative.
