🌶️ Meet Pepper 🌶️
This beach-loving beauty came all the way from Tortola in the Virgin Islands, chasing her shot at forever love—and she’s still waiting, now 400+ days later. Pepper just turned 6 years old and is part of H.A.L.O.’s Misfit Program, meaning she has a bite history and will need a home that understands her unique boundaries.

Pepper is affectionate and full of heart once she trusts you—offering sweet, grateful kisses and the best company for beach trips, fetch marathons, or just cruising in the car. She’s an athletic, fun-loving girl who thrives on adventure.

But Pepper is also a sensitive soul. She gets overwhelmed in situations where she feels cornered or frightened, such as vet visits or being loomed over. If she feels threatened, she may react by biting. Because of this, Pepper needs a patient, understanding home with adults only and preferably no high-traffic or unpredictable environments.

We’re looking for someone willing to visit a few times, take it slow, and let Pepper open up on her own terms. She’s been overlooked for far too long—but for the right person, she’ll be the most loyal, loving companion you could ask for. Could that be you?

Requirements: Martingale Collar; Old Leg Injury requires supplements; Muzzle for restraint; Misfit (Multiple Meetings and No Children)

I am a H.A.L.O. Misfit

What this means is that in my life time, I have been failed by humans and because of that, I have not learned how to deal with my fears and make good decisions.

At H.A.L.O., the trainers and handlers understand that I am a good dog who just needs someone to hold my paw sometimes and reassure me. If you would like to meet me please just know that it might take some time to get to know me and for me to learn to trust you. Our handlers would love to work with us both to lead us to a healthy, respectful and loving relationship.
