Pepita - Carolina Dog Dog for Adoption in Douglas, Massachusetts

MEET PEPITA
112 years old • 43 lbs • Carolina Dog / possible Corgi or Aussie mix

Pepita has already proven what an incredible mother—and wonderful dog—she is.

In South Carolina, Pepita wandered up to someone’s home with her eight puppies in tow. Somehow, this sweet girl had been surviving as a stray mother, doing everything she could to keep her babies safe. Thankfully, one of our rescue partners stepped in and took Pepita and her entire family into their care.

Now that her days of raising puppies are behind her, it is finally Pepita’s turn to be cared for.

Her foster family absolutely adores her and says she is an all-around amazing girl. Pepita is incredibly sweet, loves everyone she meets, and cannot get enough love and attention. She is perfectly happy being a couch-potato snuggle bug, but she also enjoys running, playing, and having fun.

Her foster says she’s
* Great with other dogs
* House-trained
* Crate-trained
* Walks well on leash
* Loves people
* Professional couch potato and snuggler
* Playful, loving, and well-mannered

The Carolina Dog, a primitive breed known for its wild ancestry, is a medium sized, agile, and intelligent dog originally found roaming freely in the Southeastern United States. With a distinctive appearance marked by erect ears, a bushy tail, and a sable coat, Carolina Dogs are highly adaptable, affectionate with their families, and wary of strangers, making them excellent watchdogs. Their natural hunting instincts and independence require consistent training and an active lifestyle to thrive in a loving home environment.
