Pepper and Zoey: Fosters needed!

Pepper (top) and Zoey (bottom) are two black lab mixes who are getting a 2nd chance at a happy ending with Pet Haven. They are currently at an animal control facility in Iowa where the adoption rates for black dogs are abysmally low. They will be transported to Minneapolis this weekend are looking for foster homes.

Pepper is a 1 year old, male lab/border collie mix. It's not often that we know how a dog will do with cats before arriving in foster care, but Pepper is one of the exceptions -- we know he is great with cats! He is also reportedly good with other dogs and kids. He knows his basic commands already and has started working on his housetraining. What a catch!

Zoey is a 5 year old, female lab mix. She's a bit shy at first, but once she gets to know you she is very affectionate. She is good with other dogs and kids. Her favorite past times include snuggling and riding in the car. She's old enough to be past the crazy puppy stages and young enough to be up for anything you want to do.

If you have room in your heart and your home to take one of these dogs in as a foster, please email pethavendogs@yahoo.com.
