Pepper is pure heart and couldn't be more at home in this high-alpine desert. While not much of a swimmer, she is an accomplished thru-hiker, having tackled some of the most challenging stretches of the Colorado Trail with us. True to the Red Heeler breed, her commitment and work ethic are unparalleled—and her ginger double coat blends with the environment in a way that suggests she is made for this wilderness. She is the definition of a working dog and an obvious choice for any brand that builds gear for tough terrains and even tougher canine companions.
