Story
Pepper is on the lookout for her happilyeverafter home! At just about a year old, this adorable fluffball is truly one of a kind. Once she gets to know you, she’s sweet as can be—though she can be a bit shy with new people and new situations. She gets along with other dogs but has a touch of “barrier sass” (a fancy way of saying she may bark or growl when there’s a fence, crate, or gate between her and someone unfamiliar). But don’t let that fool you—Pepper is a gem! She loves to play, adores her toys, and is always up for a little cuddle time. She’d be perfectly happy as an only dog, but she also enjoys having a canine buddy… preferably one who doesn’t mind her enthusiastic, roughandtumble play style. Pepper is crate trained, house trained, and walks nicely on a leash in familiar places. She’s fully vetted, spayed, microchipped, and uptodate on heartworm and flea prevention. • Chow experience is a plus• Fenced yard preferred• No small children Ready to fall in love? Her adoption application is available at www.dogdaysrescue.org Requirements for adoption:  Fenced backyard No apartments No small children Pepper‘s adoption fee is $350. ##2671203##

Story
Hi! I’m Tess I’m a sweet, squishy-faced pitbull puppy with big paws, bigger dreams, and the biggest love to give. If you’re looking for someone who will think you’re the most fascinating creature on Earth just because you exist — swipe right. About Me: Professional tail-wagger Aspiring sock thief Expert in zoomies (especially at 9:47 PM for no reason) Currently mastering “sit” and “who’s a good girl?” (I always ace the second one) I’m loyal like a knight, cuddly like a weighted blanket, and brave enough to bark at suspicious leaves. I believe in long walks, belly rubs, and staring deeply into your eyes while you eat cheese. My Ideal Match:Someone who enjoys puppy kisses, doesn’t mind sharing the couch (or the bed… or the personal space), and appreciates a lady with a little muscle and a lot of heart. Bonus points if you say “good girl” in a baby voice. I promise to: Protect you from delivery drivers Celebrate your return home like you’ve been gone for 7 years (even if it’s 7 minutes) Love you unconditionally Occasionally pretend I don’t hear you when you say “drop it” If you’re ready for a lifetime of loyalty, laughter, and slightly chewed shoelaces… Tess is your girl. P.S. I come with puppy eyes that should honestly be illegal. ##2669889##
