Pepita

Meet Pepita!<br/><br/>Pepita needs a very, very special home with a lot of patience and free time to invest into her. <br/><br/>At only nine months old, Pepita is still very much just a baby. She lacks confidence, she hasn't been socialized much, and the result is that she is absolutely terrified of the world and almost everything in it. She's only 8lbs so everything is much bigger than she is which can be understandably petrifying...especially when you don't understand how the world works just yet.<br/><br/>We're looking for a calm, quiet, adult only home without a lot of comings and goings. We're looking for someone with experience with scared little dogs, someone who has patience, and someone who has the time to spend with her. Progress with Pepita can often look like one step forward and two steps back. She is not leash trained, she WILL nip if you do something she doesn't like but it's more like...she puts her teeth on you without actually applying pressure. Of course, there is ALWAYS the potential that she COULD actually bite...because anything with a mouth can bite.<br/><br/>When Pepita learns to trust you? She is the quirkiest, silliest little bean. She bounces up and down like a reindeer, spins in circles, rubs herself all over your legs, and tries to hop into your lap every chance she gets. She immediately goes into vibrate mode like her tiny body just can't contain all of her excitement. She gives the shyest little kisses and just wants to be with you. It will take some time and effort to get to that point, but it's SO worth it.<br/><br/>Pepita does...okay with other dogs. She does best with lower energy dogs similar in size to her. She's fine with cats and doesn't really seem to know what they are but would 1000% be terrified of a grumpy cat. <br/><br/>If you think you can be Pepita's safe place...we would love for you to come meet her.<br/><br/>To apply, visit foreverpaws.com and click adopt to download our application.
