Here's what the humans have to say about me:
8/7/19: Hi everyone, Pepper here! I’m am doing so good in my foster home. My eye that we thought we might have to take out has been healing great after some surgery by Dr. Sam! It’s 85% healed. My diabetes is under control and I’m looking great. I’m scheduled to have a dental this week. Not really excited about that but... excited to have a sparkling mouth. My foster mom says I’m such a good girl. I love to go outside and do my business and just walk around in the sun. I get along with all my foster sisters and brother. Life is good now just can’t wait to find my forever home.
07/12/19 INITIAL BIO. Hey everyone! My name is Pepper. I am a 12 year old female Yorkie with grey and silver Fur. I weigh about 8.8 lbs and just recently found out I am diabetic. I came to UYR after being taken to the shelter to be put down by my mom of 12 years. This was heartbreaking, thankfully someone at the shelter contacted UYR and said I had so much life still in me. They saved me!
Now I am in my new foster home with my foster family, getting use to my new life and changes with my diet and blood sugar. I wasn’t feeling good and my foster mom took me to get checked. That is where it all started. I was in the emergency vet for 4 days. Thankfully I am a brand new puppy- feeling great and playing with my new foster siblings.
I get along great with older dogs and kids. My foster mom says I am the sweetest thing around. I have to get insulin shots every 12 hours which don’t really bother me at all and eye drops for an ulcer that’s healing. The part that is a bummer is I can’t have a treat! Man....that’s a big bummer. I would love to find my forever home with a family that will love me and give me snuggles for the rest of my life.
