This was from when we first got Pepper, back in June of '07. We were told that she was born on Valentine's Day. This week, I took Pepper to the Animal Shelter. We love her, and she is a very good dog, but now that we live in town her barking is too much. She was so low maintenance, really, but we worried about her barking making both us and the neighbors crazy. Plus, her collar was eating through the batteries for the invisible fence, and we couldn't keep her home. The last straw for us was when she followed us over to the school for the Kindergarten Celebration. We just can't have her running loose.
So, we pray that Pepper finds a new home with lots of room to roam, and very little people walking by to bark at. She was not vicious in any way, so we know that she will make someone a great pet! We will miss her, but for now will remain PET FREE! We need a break from caring for animals. Maybe someday when the kids can all care for themselves we will have a pet again...
