Meet Pepper! A gorgeous German Shepherd who absolutely LOVES her ball and some good treats! This playful, energetic girl already knows how to sit, lie down, and shake a paw, and she’s eager to keep learning. Pepper has shown some reactivity behind a barrier and can be a little hesitant when meeting new people or when things get busy. With a slow and thoughtful introduction (and lots of treat bribery), Pepper begins to warm up and show her friendly self. She’s still learning to make friends, and when Pepper has had enough, she will let you know! She’s also not a fan of hands at first and is not completely warmed up to the idea of pets yet, but she’s always happy to go on a nice walk (while working on some leash skills!) where she loves to take in her surroundings and explore. Pepper is a very environmentally focused girl who’s always interested in what’s happening around her!
Pepper is a very intelligent working breed who would thrive in an active home that can keep both her mind and body busy with plenty of exercise, training, and fun jobs to do. She can also be quite wary of new people and situations, so a family that can read canine body language would be best!
