Peppa

My story

Hello there, I’m Peppa!I`m very friendly and affectionate, always ready for a pat or a playful game. I love spending my days playing with toys (though I don’t like to share) and getting cozy with friends who give the best cuddles. I’ve affectionately earned the nickname “house hippo” from my friends at GHS: you see, I’m actually quite small: it’s only 15 inches from the floor to the top of my head!While I am a super loving girl, I do sometimes get worked up and bark at people on leash. I am very treat-motivated, which makes training fun and easy. However, I can be a bit possessive of food and things to do with food. With some dedicated humans and a positive training approach, I am confident I’ll make progress in both of these departments! My new family should know that I have a long-term history of skin disease. My friends at GHS have worked hard to get it under control and it’s currently well-managed, but you should speak with your veterinarian before adopting me as it is a lifelong condition.MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…CHILDREN: No, I am looking for an adult-only home, due to my resource guarding tendencies.OTHER DOGS: I would prefer to be the only pet in the home.CATS: I would prefer to be the only pet in the home.FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: No, I would do best with someone who has previous dog experience.FENCED-IN YARD: Not necessarily.HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: No apartment buildings since I can bark when I see other dogs.SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: Not necessarily.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME…ACTIVITY LEVEL: Low-medium.HOUSE-TRAINED: Yes.SPECIAL DIET: Yes, I’m on a hypoallergenic diet.MEDICATIONS: Yes, I take a daily oral medication to help with my itching.If you think I would make a good match for your home, please click the `Adopt Me` button to apply!
