Story
Pepper is an adorable 10-year old Shih Tzu. He was surrendered to Rico when his senior owner could no longer care for him. Pepper is a wonderful little guy! He likes to go on short walks. He has no accidents in the house and is fully potty trained! Pepper is very sweet with people and just wants a lap to sit on. Pepper walks well on a leash. Pepper loves being talked to. He likes cats and friendly dogs of all sizes as long as he can be out of the way if playtime get rough or unpredictable. Pepper will go in the crate but his feelings get hurt. He is such a good boy that he doesn’t need to be crated. If you are looking for a loving, sweet, friendly lap little buddy, Pepper would love to meet you! Apply for Pepper at ricopetrecovery.org. The adoption fee for Pepper is $200. Pepper is neutered and up to date on vaccines.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Meet Sis! Sis is an absolute doll who is looking for her forever person to cuddle and relax with. This poor girl lived outside for most of her life and has not had an easy go of it. Consequently she has some health issues including some dental issues and a heart murmur, which she is currently taking medication.   She has been around other dogs and cats in her current foster home and does take time warming up to other dogs after she has been introduced to them. Older less active dogs would probably be her best siblings but she would be happy as an only dog as well.   Sis is house trained when she is on a schedule and does very well with this as well as learning how to walk on a leash.  Sis does need carried down the stairs or when she has walked too long on her leash.  She does not need to be crated and does fine when left alone in the home. In her current foster placement she has not been introduced to children of any age so proper introductions are needed.  If you need a little girl who will snort as she cuddles up on your lap for a nap then please apply today!
