Are you ready for this special boy?! Meet Ziggy!!!

Ziggy is a two year old, Pittie/Basset Hound mix with quirky proportions that instantly make you fall in love. He was pretty shy and nervous in the shelter but in just a few days in a loving environment, his personality is already starting to shine! He has proven himself to be the affectionate, loving, and playful pup we knew he’d be. Ziggy loves to snuggle and nothing makes him happier than cuddles on the couch. He can sometimes be apprehensive around new people and pups and may give a little bark to share his hesitation, but he warms up quickly! He truly LOVES other dogs — his whole body wiggles and he quickly goes into a play-bow to initiate playtime. He is also doing well as a solo-pup in his foster so likely will be able to adapt to any environment. Ziggy is potty-trained, does well in the crate, and is quickly learning basic commands as he is very food-motivated! He does fairly decent on the leash but still has some room for improvement. He’d benefit from an owner who can continue building on his basic training and help him regain his confidence outside of the shelter. Ziggy enjoys the outdoors with his whole heart and would thrive in a home with a yard for space to explore and play. If you’re looking for an affectionate pup with moderate energy, Ziggy may be your boy! He is a special boy that has a lot of love to give and he will make an amazing companion to his forever family.
