Meet Pepper June 🌶️🐾

6 months old | Toy Australian Shepherd | Small dog, big personality | Deaf 

Pepper June may be a Toy Aussie, but she packed a whole lot of energy and charm into that tiny body. This happy, playful puppy is adventurous, goofy, and always ready to make a new friend.
 
Pepper came to NTASR after spending time in a shelter, but she hasn’t let that slow her down one bit. She’s a joyful little pup who loves people — especially kids — and is always excited to be part of the action.
 
Pepper does have a hearing impairment, but she doesn’t let it hold her back. She’s a clever girl who learns quickly and responds beautifully to routine and visual cues. Like many Aussies, she’s very smart and eager to figure things out.
 
She walks nicely on leash, is crate trained and potty trained, and settles well in her kennel after a quick minute of puppy commentary. She’s currently working on her fetching skills and loves playtime and interaction with her people.
 
Pepper June would thrive in a home that enjoys an active, playful pup and is excited to continue her training and adventures. With her sweet personality, sharp mind, and endless enthusiasm, she’s sure to bring laughter and love to a very lucky family.
 
Small dog, big heart — Pepper June is (ALMOST) ready to find her forever home. 🐾💛
