Meet Ziggy!

Ziggy

Ziggy is a small tan and white Chihuahua. He is approximately 2 years old and weighs 5 pounds.

Ziggy is super sweet and snuggly. He is very true to his breed. He’s a little dog with a big personality wrapped up inside. He loves his people and gets along with other dogs and cats in his foster home. His secret wish is to have all of his person’s attention directed solely at him though. Ziggy is a bit hand shy and is looking for someone to continue working with him on this.

Ziggy

He is generally quiet in the home and he will proudly announce visitors at the door. Ziggy knows how to sit on command, listens when told no and he gives the most precious little pouty faces when he gets himself into mischief. He sleeps all night in his crate without a peep. He absolutely loves stuffed toys and chew ropes to play with. He runs around outside with the big dogs and he’s almost just as fast as they are. When allowed on the bed, Ziggy will bury himself under the covers and fall fast asleep. If you have room in your heart for a little spitfire of a dog, Ziggy would love to meet you.

Ziggy is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and microchipped.

Meet Patsy!

Patsy

Hi, my name is Patsy! I am a young Catahoula mix girl (about 1.5 years old), but I have already learned to be afraid of so much. My foster momma is teaching me that I don’t need to be afraid all the time, and that new things are fun! Once I’ve made friends with a dog I love to play. I love to play in the snow, chasing in the snow is the best! I would love to be the only dog in the house, but I could learn to love a sibling. I wish I could find a furever family who will love me and give me belly rubs and take me for walks every day. We could build a snowman together…well, you can, I’ll run around and make you laugh instead! Will you be my furever family?

Patsy

And now, a few words from my foster mom: Patsy is such a special girl. Every day she makes me smile and laugh. She is goofy and silly and her smile is amazing. She can be very fearful of new dogs that come into her space, and will bark or snap at them if she feels threatened. We are working diligently on teaching her that she doesn’t need to be afraid, but her furever family will need to continue this work. She loves to run and play outside and would be an amazing addition to your family. Patsy loves her crate and often will retreat into it when she is feeling insecure, or when she has realized that she hoarded all her toys in there. She does not eat or destroy furniture, but she sure does love to de-stuff her toys! Patsy would be perfect for a family with no other dogs, or a submissive type dog.

Experience needed: Experience with handling a fearful dog
Vocalizing: Barks when left alone for a few minutes, but does settle – not a good option for apartment living
Leash Trained: Reactive to new dogs and will pull.
Reaction to new people: Friendly
Likes: Toys, Belly Rubs, Car Rides

Patsy is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and microchipped.
