(Muskegon Humane Society) — Hello! I'm Pepper, a male, AKC-registered black cocker spaniel. I've got my papers to prove my pedigree. I'm 2 1/2 years old and need a lot of affection to make me feel secure again. If you have children, I'd prefer that they be older.

Come see me at the Humane Society and Animal Rescue of Muskegon County at 2640 Marquette Ave. Hours are 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday; and 9 a.m. to noon Saturday. Closed Wednesday and Sunday.
