The primary purpose of Peppertree is to help find homes for dogs in need who represent the character and temperament commonly associated with Golden Retrievers: friendliness, intelligence and a peaceful, loving nature.
In addition to accepting dogs of any breed or mix that meet our temperament requirements, Peppertree is also a recognized Golden Retriever rescue organization (http://www.grca-nrc.org/). We frequently have purebred Goldens available for adoption, and we have an established relationship with Memphis Area Golden Retriever Rescue (MAGRR). Read about their Northeast Adoption Program here: http://www.magrr.org/Adoptions/neadopt.htm
Peppertree Special Pet
BARKLEY (a.k.a. Moose) - Lab/Hound/Pit? Mix, male, 8 years, 80 lbs. Barkley is a sweetheart! He is a large boy and very well behaved in his foster home where he is living with 5 dogs and 3 dog savvy cats. He is great with all of them, but will give chase if the cats run past him. He is housebroken and crate trained, but does not need to be crated. Barkley loves to be near his foster mom and is friendly with all who meet him. He loves to play fetch and run around the yard with his foster siblings. He has been with toddlers and is very gentle with them, but very small children may have to watch out for his big wagging tail! Barkley is most comfortable lying on the couch and relaxing when he isn't playing outside. He will do just about anything for a belly rub! He is great while riding in the car and enjoys looking out the windows. He loves to go for walks but he may need a little work with that as he is very strong and pulls on the leash. Barkley will be a great family pet, whether he is an only dog or has other dogs in the home. Please come and meet this wonderful boy! Click here see more pictures of Barkley on Petfinder.com.
