Her ears were significant for a yeast infection that was treated. She allows her ears to be cleaned, is excellent in the bath, good about being groomed. The exception is she is sensitive to her feet being handled. We are working on desensitizing her to touch and was good for the vet tech who trimmed her nails. Peppers really likes to be near people and be petted. With other dogs to play with, long walks daily and a wide variety of playthings, she is making choices and has settled in easily.
