Pepper, the Dog of the Day
Name: Pepper
Age: Thirteen years old
Gender: Male Breed: Tibetan Terrier mix
Home: Massachusetts, USA
 
   This is my dog Pepper. For my eighth birthday all I wanted was a dog and when we went to the animal shelter this little guy was the only dog not barking his head off but he sure was jumping around on his hind legs for attention! I named him Pepper because he was all black with little specs of white (although he has a lot more gray and white now that he's a old man!) and we've had him now for almost twelve years. He was there to keep me company as a kid when my parents were out, and now he keeps my parents company while I'm away at college. He's a very cuddly, roly poly fellow and he loves everyone! Even the veterinarians say he has a great attitude!

    His favorite activities are sleeping, exploring outside, and play-fighting with the cat (they pretend to dislike each other... until you catch them cuddling). He can do tricks like shake and roll-over and he'll always try to get away with doing them all at once as soon as you show him a treat. Pepper is very much a people-dog and always likes to be where the action is, but he's mellow at the same time, so most often he can be found with people, but happily asleep. He hates to get wet and avoids puddles at all cost, but if you put him in snow he hops around like a little bunny and chases snowballs! When I'm away at school I miss my little guy a ton, but I know he'll be waiting with a lick (or ten) and a request for a tummy rub when I come home! Love you buddy!
