Story
Strudel was found nursing her babies and in a severe state of neglect. She was skin and bones, and since being in the care of Bosque Buddies has almost doubled her weight. She has been a great mom and is great with other dogs. She likes kids, too! We did get her dna tested and I posted the results in the photos. She did test positive for the dwarfism gene so that’s why she is so small even for being mixed with so many giant breeds. She is looking for her perfect forever home.

Story
Meet Pepper! Pepper's birthday is December 18th, 2025. She came to us with her siblings and mom when she was 10 days old. Pepper came to us from a hoarding situation, where she and her family didn't have the best start. Her mother was starving and she and her siblings were very weak. But, she had one strong mama, and now we are delighted to report that the whole crew is chubby, happy, and healthy. We've watched Pepper grow into a wonderful young lady. She is incredibly sweet and smart. She does very well with the other dogs, cats, and kids in her foster home. However, Pepper does have some leash and barrier reactivity that has really seemed to hurt her chances of being adopted. All of Pepper's siblings have been adopted into their forever homes for months, but she is still patiently waiting her turn. Due to a history of reactivity that she has worked really hard to get a handle on, we think it's best if Pepper does go to a home with at least 1 other dog. Based on our observations of her behavior in different settings, we think that if she were to be the only dog in her forever home, the manners she has worked so hard to learn would start to fall away and some of that reactivity could return or worsen. Pepper can be shy when meeting new people and dogs, but once she has a moment to warm up, this girl is a wiggly little dream. She has a beautiful smile and she seems to wake up every morning just thrilled to be alive. Pepper loves to bounce, and wrestle, and wiggle all day long. She would make a fantastic companion for a family who can be a little bit patient with her as she settles in. Pepper is potty trained and crate trained, though of course we advise everyone that accidents are usually part of the adjustment process for any dog. Pepper does a great job on leash and we hope her future family is able to continue practicing her skills. She absolutely loves to play tug-of-war, and spends a good chunk of her afternoons playing with her mom (who is also still available for adoption) and her other friends in the yard. We'd also like it noted that this girl very well might be the fastest dog west of the Mississippi - she zooms like there's no tomorrow. If we could bottle her happy energy, well, it would probably end up being illegal. Pepper is spayed, up to date on all of her vaccines and heartworm prevention, and is microchipped. If you have any questions about Pepper, our adoption process, or anything else, please feel free to email Bosque Buddies Animal Rescue at adoption@bbanimalrescue.org or call/text us anytime at 505-333-8980. **All adoptions are at events or by appointment only. ***Please complete an adoption application at: bbanimalrescue.org/adopt
