A spokesperson said: “It's heartbreaking to see Pepper, who gave so much love and care to her puppies, still waiting for someone to show her the same love. Her puppies have all moved on to their new lives, but Pepper remains here, longing for a family of her own.
“She has faced several ailments that have disrupted her time spent up for adoption, increasing her stay with us. Despite these setbacks, Pepper has maintained her loving and affectionate nature, proving just how special she is.
“Pepper deserves nothing less than the best, and we know the perfect home is out there waiting for her. If you have the love, patience, and time to give, Pepper could be the perfect addition to your family.”
