Pet of the week

Pepper is a purebred Havanese dog with a sweet personality. She traveled over 3,000 miles as a puppy when her family adopted her from Germany. The sweet natured girl currently lives with her dog parent, Rich, in the Federal Hill neighborhood.

Pepper has naturally long, silky hair, which was recently cut and styled at the salon. She comes from a line of show dog champions which include her Grandmother and Father.

Pepper is known for her friendly demeanor and love for outdoor adventures. She enjoys long walks in Bristol’s beautiful parks and is always eager to meet new friends; both human and canine.

The spirited girl is ready for Halloween when she will wear her Wonder Woman costume.

All TBE readers, supporters and donors                

The Bristol Edition will be limiting the number of stories non-members and free readers may access each week. This decision is based on our financial projections and, most certainly, to remind people that TBE is serious about providing accurate, timely and thorough reporting for Bristol. To do this we have devised a financial support structure that makes unlimited access extremely affordable, beginning with a $6 monthly donation.                

  • Non-members will be able to access four (4) articles per week.                
  • Free readers and people who have subscribed by email will be able to access four (4) articles per week.                
  • Donors and financial supporters will have unlimited access as long as they log in.                

Note: Donors may have to contact TBE if they find they are being limited, since we will need to set up a membership account for you. Email editor@bristoledition.org for instructions. Sorry for any inconvenience. People with financial difficulties may write editor@bristoledition.org to be considered for free access.
