Peppermint is a 10-year-old terrier that was adopted and returned to NAWS after several years through no fault of her own. Like her name, she is as sweet as can be! She loves people and likes to snuggle and nap with them. She would do best as the only pet in a home because she is not a fan of other dogs or cats. She loves children. She is potty-trained and has moments where she still loves to play. To meet Peppermint, email Dogadoption@nawsus.org. Visit nawsus.org.
