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).

TATE - Pit Bull, female, 4 years. Tate was found on the streets of NYC. When she went to the shelter system of NYC (CACC) she languished due to the dozens of pit bulls that are turned in or found as strays. When she developed kennel cough, she was slated for euthanasia due to space issues, but CACC volunteers strongly advocated for her and Peppertree took her in. She is now in isolation to get over the Kennel Cough. She is initially shy, but warms up quickly. She is very loving and gentle. She loves to be petted and gives back to her caretaker. She enjoys so much to be brushed, to be talked to, and just laying at her caretaker's feet. Tate proved to be a very good walker too. She is good with other dogs and in a limited cat test, she showed no interest in them. How she would be with children is unknown.
