Hello! My name is Pepper Mint Johnson. My parents are Brent and Tish. I was rescued when I was 9 months old. Mom tells the story, that I walked out a door to meet them, and she looked at Dad, and he knew I was coming home with them! He did say a naughty word but that’s ok- I am now his buddy and follow him everywhere.
Many folks ask us about my heritage. The Humane Society says I am an Affenpinscher Poodle mix. Mom says that since she is Irish, I must be too! Of course, she thinks I am perfect! Those are her words and she is never wrong.
I have been an RV dog since the day I came home. I enjoy riding in the RV more than in cars because I enjoy looking out the big window to see where we are going. Furthermore, this position allows me to watch over the family. While I love a little attention from new friends and exploring new places, I am not a fan of big dogs, though I try to be brave.
My favorite toy is a ball! It took me some time, but I finally taught my parents how to play fetch- I love running after the ball and 9 times out of 10 I will catch it in the air. If not, I will find it and return it to my parents to try throwing it again, correctly. Play sessions can last hours. Mom said she will list the ball below for you to see.
I am hoping we can update “Peppers Place"to include special places we have visited and some new dog toys. Dad is saying no more new toys, but Mom just smiled... looks like I might be getting some new toys soon.
If you are looking for a new family member, please check out your local rescues. Folks in the Tidewater Area you can visit our friends at Critters 4 U Rescue, Inc. located in Gloucester, Virginia or Heritage Humane Society located in Williamsburg, Virginia
Laying in the shade and watching all the people
