Feb. 11, 2015: Pepper is an adorable three-month-old terrier mix puppy.

He is happiest when he is the center of an active family's life. Pepper is quite smart and at such a young age has already learned some basic manners.

This adventurous pooch is great in the car, loves to go on shopping excursions, and especially loves playing with his furry friends in the foster home.

Pepper is full of energy and like a typical puppy likes to bounce around. He is wonderful with all people. He loves children, but because of his size and puppy spirit he should probably not go to a home with very small children. He currently weighs twelve pounds and will most likely grow to be a medium-sized dog.

Pepper is ready and waiting for his forever family. He is in excellent health, has been neutered, and is up to date with all of his vaccinations. His adoption donation is $250.

For more information, please contact Pet Rescue at 914-834-6955 or visit its website at www.NY-Petrescue.org.

Pet Rescue requires that all potential adopters fill out an adoption application prior to meeting with the dogs and cats in their care. The application can be found on its website. To expedite the process, please make a note that you learned about Pepper through MyHometownBronxville.
