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).

Peppertree Special Pet
CANDY - Pit Bull Terrier Mix, female, 7 years, ~40 lbs. Candy is a very petite and pretty spayed Pit Bull. True to the breed she loves all people and "has never met a stranger." Eager to please, happy, and high energy, Candy loves to be where the action is. So much so that she will scale a fence, but once on the other side, will simply run to greet the first person she might see. Chasing squirrels is a favorite activity, as is running alongside a bike on leash. Car rides are also something our Candy loves. She is crate trained and once she learns that the people in the house run things, not Candy, she is very respectful of rules. She is too interested in cats to live one, and would be best as an only dog or with a submissive male. Due to food allergies she is on a daily regimen of Benadryl and a fish and potato kibble. When she came to Peppertree her skin was a mess, but even when she was feeling itchy and uncomfortable, Candy never lost her sweet nature. The tail never stops wagging, in the most adorable up-and-down-side-to-side motion. Her adoption fee is sponsored and Peppertree will pledge a monetary amount to purchasing her food.
