My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Little Pepper is so named because she is an active, spicy girl! She was dumped out of a car and left, so we had to scoop her right up! She was a bit nervous at first, and did not know what to think, but now after only a short time she has settled right in and is playing with the children and the big dogs in the home. She is around two years old, the vets believe, and weighs 15 pounds. Pepper sleeps all night in her crate and is house trained. She enjoys laps and feeling secure when she is picked up. She amazes us with her snuggling and care. Pepper loves going for walks and being out with her people; as soon as you pick up her harness she gets excited to go for a walk! She plays with big dogs and little dogs, and will amaze you at how well she keeps up with the bigger dogs! Her resilience in moving on from the awful experience she had shows us what a wonderful dog she is and she deserves only the very best moving forward!

More about this rescue

We are a dog rescue focused on the Pine Ridge and Rosebud Indian Reservations and the nearby border towns. At LightShine Canine we bring the heart of the Lakota and the needs of the dogs together. Our goal is to rescue stray, abandoned, injured or abused dogs on the Pine Ridge Reservation with the help of Lakota youth and adults working on sobriety...and to find these dogs forever homes. Our adoption fees help us continue to do this and to provide community outreach to Tribal members in the form of dog food, vaccines and spay/neuter. Our dog rescue work program is geared to ensure that the dogs we rescue and the Lakota who assist us with this dream are changed forever.
