Just look at that sweet little face! Ziggy needs a home and he is already imagining his new life. You are someone with the time to include Ziggy in your life, to take him to the ball game or join him in your fenced yard so he can run like the wind in big joyful circles. He is just plain sad without a family of his own. He sees every car as his way back to the people who abandoned him.. so please consider fostering or adopting him so he can have some happiness by the end of the year. You may offer him treats rewards when he sits, which he knows by hand signal. We think he is about 6 to 8 yrs. old . He's an active boy who loves to snuffle and wiggle his way through every new environment. He enjoys chasing his toys, running around other gentle dogs and curling up in a warm spot for a nap. Ziggy is about 6 years old, neutered, up to date on shots and ready to go to his home. He has a connective tissue disorder in his face that caused his chewing muscles to atrophy so he can't open his mouth very wide which means he can't bite another dog which makes him a little insecure. He is happy though, just sad with missing his family. Kids over 7 OK..Cats probably ok as he is a gentle boy. He is housebroken to doggy door but will need to get on a schedule in a new home to go out. Adoption fee is $275.
