The Furever Project

We are a nonprofit supported by a 100% volunteer staff. We rescue, rehabilitate (when needed) and rehome all dog breeds and dog breed mixes. We don't limit our support to a specific breed. We provide care for dogs who are terminally ill who may otherwise but euthanized so they may be loved and live out their life in a loving fospice home. We support our local community through advocating and providing education on spay/neuter, vaccine and heartworm prevention education and safe dog handling. We provide financial support to those who have dogs with medical issues but can't afford medical care allowing guardians to keep their dogs whom otherwise may have been euthanized or turned into a local shelter.

Meet Pepper

Say hello to Pepper! This senior pit bull mix came to The Furever Project from the Spotsylvania Animal Shelter (VA). We don't know much about her past, but we do know that she's one of the sweetest dogs around! Pepper is a very friendly girl, and she loves meeting new people. When someone starts petting her, she leans into them as if to say, "I'm enjoying this SO much! Please don't stop!" :) Pepper is also good with other dogs and with cats. (She lives with both in her foster home.) She doesn't need to have a furry companion in her adoptive home, though — she would be fine as an only pet. Pepper is both crate trained and housebroken. She's not particularly vocal, but she will emit a few rather funny-sounding and adorable woofs when she knows it's mealtime. (Her foster parents say she has a "spicy" side and affectionately call her "Miss Spicy.") Pepper needs some obedience training (including how to walk politely on a leash), but she is very food-motivated and eager to please, so she should pick up commands in no time. A group obedience class — which The Furever Project requires — will do wonders for her! Pepper hasn't shown much interest in any of the toys she's been offered. However, she does love Kongs filled with peanut butter — especially if they're frozen! She also enjoys all kinds of treats. In fact, she's never met a treat that she didn't like! Pepper has a lot of love to offer a family or an individual who is ready to give her the best years of her life. Could that be you? If so, please submit an adoption application for her today! *PLEASE NOTE: Pepper is heartworm positive and is currently undergoing treatment. However, she can be adopted under a foster-to-adopt contract. This type of contract makes it possible for The Furever Project to continue covering all medical costs associated with her heartworm treatment until negative results are obtained.
