Pepper and Julie Jones were having a grand time walking through the park , until they fare upon a flock of geese who needed chase after . So that ’s just what Pepper did .
" Her born instinct is to go and crowd them and chase , so she bolted , " Charlotte Jonestold the Daily Mail .

Charlotte Jones and Caps , once they were inform of the position , started posting online and look for the neighborhood for their lost pupper , come up empty handed .
But it turns out they need n’t have worried , because Pepper had this all under control . Having made the trip with her humans before , Pepper apparently lie with that the bus was her ally and made the intimately 3 - naut mi trek from Fairlands Valley Park to a passenger vehicle stop for the town center bus place and hop right up onto the identification number 7 bus .
She could n’t compensate the transportation , because she is a dog and therefore has no sack . But another bus passenger recognise Pepper and sussed out that she was probably trying to get home . The Good Samaritan explained the manifest office to the bus driver , who allowed the gutsy puppy to stay onboard and ride for costless .
Fifteen minute later , Pepper — ever zippy and on top of the situation — stick out up and got ready to exit at her stop , hop off the busbar as soon as the doors were open . Once off the bus , Pepper make out that she ’d done all she could to repair the berth , and waited patiently at the omnibus stoppage until Jones and Caps ascertain her . ( The Good Samaritan had texted Pepper ’s possessor , alerting them to Pepper ’s motorcoach location . She also mother off at Pepper ’s stop and expect with the frankfurter till Jones and Caps arrived . )
" She have a go at it when to get up when the bell call up . We have done that bus drive for so long , the doors opened and she jumped off , " Charlotte Jones told the Daily Mail .
