Jack Russell / Pointer Mix Looking for Her Person in Billings

Wet Nose Wednesday is brought to you by Shipton's Big R, and this week we're featuring an adorable one-year old female named Pepper. She's a Jack Russell and Pointer mix, and is available for adoption at the Yellowstone Valley Animal Shelter.

The Yellowstone Valley Animal Shelter says Pepper is available for adoption by application, and she came from an area where mange is highly prevalent.

We have preemptively treated them for mange as a precaution. This dog is not available for viewing and is available by application only. If you interact with this dog you will not be able to interact with other dogs after. -Yellowstone Valley Animal Shelter.
