Pepper

Pepper

Pepper was 'Tutti' in the Wild Wild West Litter and lives in Florida with Michelle, Michael, and her dog mom, Ellie. Pepper (aka “Pepper-Chino,” “Jackalope,” or occasionally “Paw Patrol”) is a 90-pound powerhouse who possesses effortless movement that commands attention the moment she steps into the ring. She proved that early on by earning her Championship title in just two show circuits (Orlando and Perry), finishing in 2025 right after her first birthday. In just her third show —the prestigious 2025 Royal Canin National Championship — she was awarded Select Bitch among an exceptional group of GSMDs. She carries herself with the true confidence you want in the breed, balanced by all the gentleness you hope for in a giant dog.

Ironically, while Pepper may be a Florida girl, she wants zero part of the pool or beach lifestyle. Land patrol, however, is another story. With a higher prey drive, she has never laid eyes on a squirrel she didn't want to investigate, nor an iguana she couldn't outrun to earn her "Paw Patrol" title. She is also intensely food-driven, which makes training a breeze — especially when a tasty bribe is involved. Channeling that focus and lightning-fast footwork, her family is excited to start formal obedience training and dive into Fast CAT with her soon (the mechanical bunny doesn't stand a chance).

Off duty, Pepper settles right into a mellow energy level. Deeply gentle, adaptable, and easygoing, she has the perfect mild temperament you look for in a therapy dog. When she isn't sharing space with her mama Eleanor or surveying the yard from the patio glass, you’ll find her stationed by the kitchen counter in anticipation of dinner (did we mention she loves food?) — or resting her soft head in your lap, quietly waiting for some well-deserved love.
