Things That Make Elsa Jealous
I'm a Pepper, he's a Pepper, wouldn't you like to be a Pepper too?
My roommate, Christine, and I have run into this little guy in our neighborhood three times over the past week. No tags of any sort and just the friendliest little dog. He clearly is not a dog that was meant to live on the street. We took him in once last week, but he got away. He came back to us last night and we've been taking care of him since. We even named him Pepper. He's been hanging out at the office with me this morning, until the Humane Society opens at lunch time. We are hoping he has been chipped, so that we'll be able to find his owner (most likely a little old lady) right away. If not, I have no doubt this little bundle will be adopted in no time.
He's so snuggly and sweet, it's really hard to work, and not just hold him. But at the same time, he's resting quietly under my desk, really without a care in the world. If he turns out not to have a home to return to, and you'd like to adopt him, you can check on his status at the Woodford County Humane Society over the next few days. I would keep him forever, if Christine and I weren't already the crazy dog ladies of our neighborhood.
Update: Can't take him to Woodford, who charges a surrender fee for all out of county residents. Since Jessamine is still closed until tomorrow, I am taking him to my vet who has a microchip scanner. Will update this afternoon.
Update 2: Pepper isn't chipped. He'll remain a Weber/Amerman dog until Jessamine HS opens tomorrow. I'm praying that I stop bonding with him and he stops being the the cutest dog ever because that's not helping the cause. :) With no collar and no chip, I'm getting worried about this supposed home that Pepper ran away from. While I'll still take him to the Humane Society tomorrow, I am actively seeking a good home for him - contact me if you're interested.
Update 3: Pepper is now at the Jessamine Humane Society. Still looking for his family. He will be kept as a stray for one week, and then will be "prepped" and put up for adoption.
