Story
Her name may be Salt, but she's oh so sweet! Bonded to her sister Pepper; they must be adopted together. At only 8lbs, Salt is the smaller sister, and she's spunky and great on walks; they both are! Both gals are not big fans of felines, so a home with no cats would be ideal. Salt & Pepper are terrific senior gals that were loved by their previous owner who sadly passed away, so they're looking for a home that will give them just as much love as their old one did! (A home visit is required before adoption for these girls!)Salt and Pepper are located at:Going to the Dogs & Cats Resale StoreCottonwood Mall10000 Coors Bypass NWUse the Main Entrance Between MOR & JC PenneyAlbuquerque, NM 87114Phone: (505) 867-5347Adoption hours at our location are 11am-4pm, Mon-Sat, and 12pm-4pm Sun(Please arrive by 3pm to have plenty of time to meet with our adoptable pets)

Story
Pepper is our spicy/sweet senior gal, and the bonded sister to Salt, so they must be adopted together. How can you break up this Salt & Pepper set?! At around 15lbs, Pepper is the bigger sister in size. They both love to go on walks, but only small ones because Pepper goes slow! Both gals are not big fans of felines, so a home with no cats would be ideal. Salt & Pepper are terrific senior gals that were loved by their previous owner who sadly passed away, so they're looking for a home that will give them just as much love as their old one did!
