Ziggy (Reduced Rover)'s Story

Meet Ziggy: 55 Pounds of Blue-Brindle Serotonin, Underbite Diplomacy & Recreational Excellence<br/><br/>Ziggy is an 8-year-old, 55-pound blue-brindle pittie whose underbite appears to have been designed by a committee specifically tasked with destabilizing the human nervous system.<br/><br/>It worked.<br/><br/>She is a walking serotonin supplement with seniority, and her previous kid siblings considered her equal parts sister, emotional-support pillow, and household comedian. Ziggy adored them accordingly. Her human policy remains refreshingly uncomplicated: all people are friends unless compelling evidence suggests they are actually a lamp.<br/><br/>She is house trained, command trained, and not merely kennel trained but pro-kennel. Her crate is a private studio apartment where she lounges among her possessions and contemplates snacks, fiscal policy, and whether another nap would stimulate the economy.<br/><br/>Toys are received with Faberge-egg reverence. Fetch, however, is conceptual. Ziggy will pursue a ball with Olympic conviction, acquire it, and then become philosophically uncertain about why capitalism requires her to return your property.<br/><br/>Other animals have been reviewed and respectfully declined. Ziggy is perfectly composed around them on leash, but she would prefer to be the sole four-legged beneficiary of household resources. No roommates. No coalition government. Just Ziggy.<br/><br/>She has a low-grade heart murmur that has been considered stable and likely genetic, and she remains thoroughly unconcerned. At eight, Ziggy has reached that magnificent age where wisdom and ridiculousness have achieved peaceful coexistence.<br/><br/>She cuddles. She plays. She naps with professional accreditation. She loves children, humans, toys, and apparently private real estate.<br/><br/>And then there is that underbite.<br/><br/>Eight years of refinement. Fifty-five pounds of joy. One profoundly unserious mouth. Ziggy has left no notes for improvement.<br/><br/>PLEASE READ BELOW:<br/><br/>If you are interested in meeting and/or adopting, the first step is to complete an application and read all of our FAQs: <br/><br/>https://www.takepawsrescue.org/adopt<br/><br/>Please note: Information to determine if you might be a match for one of our animals can only be found on our application. <br/>*An inquiry, questions or introduction through Petfinder is NOT an application* <br/>All known details about our animals are posted on their profile and updated daily. Other info will be discussed in detail with the foster during the application review process. Due to the high volume of introductions/questions received we ask you to submit an application (that application can be used for any dog with Take Paws Rescue).<br/><br/>The adoption fee for adult dogs covers age appropriate vaccinations, microchip, spay/neuter if not yet performed, heartworm test & appropriate heartworm treatment by the rescue's vet. All dogs in our care are also kept up-to-date on HW/Flea Prevention.<br/>For more on this, or for additional information, including the adoption process and our adoption fee scale for all our adoptable pets (including an explanation about Benefactor Dogs), please see our FAQs page: <br/><br/>https://www.takepawsrescue.org/faq<br/><br/>Any breed labels used by Take Paws Rescue, its employees/volunteers, or on vet records provided cannot be guaranteed. Breed labels are given based on information obtained during intake and/or best guesses based on appearance and/or temperament of the dogs and Take Paws Rescue gives no assurance to the accuracy of these labels. Labels are necessary for postings to many animal networking sites, such as our website, Chewy, Pet Finder, and others. These are in no way a guarantee. Additionally, exact age and potential size cannot be guaranteed.<br/><br/>***Take Paws Rescue, based in New Orleans, saves dogs from high-kill shelters across the South, owner surrenders, and discarded dogs with uncertain futures. All of our animals live in foster homes where they are socialized and well cared for. An application will be required to make sure it's the perfect match!
