Pepper's Story

Pepper, an 8-year-old Sheltie/Pomeranian mix, is a sweet, happy girl who loves rolling on her back, waving her paws in the air! She was surrendered to Maine Sheltie Rescue as she had been attacked several times, different times, by big dogs in and near her home. <br/><br/>Pepper is very loving and snuggly! She wants and deserves her own person(s) to keep her safe and loved. <br/><br/>Pepper walks well on leash and enjoys occasional treats. <br/><br/>She is crate trained and willingly goes into her crate at night. <br/><br/>A fenced in yard is a must so Pepper can run around, sniffing and rolling in the grass, while staying safe.
