Ziggy’s Ideal Home
To ensure Ziggy thrives, we’re looking for a home that suits his needs and personality. He’s a great fit for individuals or families who can provide a stable, loving environment. Here’s what Ziggy’s ideal home looks like:
  • Patient Owners: Ziggy needs time to build trust with new people, so patient adopters are a must.
  • No Young Children: Since he hasn’t lived with babies or toddlers, a home with older children or adults is best.
  • Secure Yard: Ziggy loves to explore and chase, so a secure yard is ideal for his playful antics.
  • Dog-Savvy Owners: He gets along with other dogs but may try to be the boss, so owners should be comfortable managing dog interactions.

Living with Ziggy
Ziggy is a well-mannered dog who’s ready to settle into his new home. He’s toilet-trained and doesn’t lift his leg indoors, making him a great fit for house living. However, there are a few things to know about his behavior:
  • Protective Instincts: Ziggy can be protective of his family and may bark or want to nip at strangers entering the yard.
  • Cat Compatibility: While he grew up with cats, he now tends to chase them, so a cat-free home is likely best, or correctly introducing him to the new cats.
  • Dog Friendships: He’s good with other dogs but may try to assert dominance, so slow introductions are key.
Ziggy’s playful and loving nature shines through in everything he does, from chasing birds to snuggling up with his favorite people. With the right family, he’ll be a loyal and joyful companion.
