GOOD IN A HOME WITH
Other dogs, cats, children
According to Urban Dictionary, Ziggy is a name for people that are amazing. If I had opposable thumbs, I would write them a letter or something because it’s not just amazing people named Ziggy, but amazing dogs too!
I always aim to please my friends, but I am still learning some minor things. I am not quite used to going for a walk on leash yet…but I am learning to appreciate a harness. I do know some basic commands already, but mostly I am just a derpy guy. As you can see from my “Zoomy Ziggy” video, I am sure to bring some razzle dazzle into your life! Along with my playful and goofy personality, I love to flop myself comfortably in your lap and soak up your love!
I can be a bit of a sensitive soul if I get myself into trouble (like when my excited hops to see you are less appreciated than I intend them to be). I know it’s not polite to show my excitement in this way, but hey, in the moment it is much harder to remember….so sometimes I need a gentle reminder….and I am always so sorry. And I would tell you how sorry I am if not for the language barrier.
My new family should know, when I was a small pup, I didn’t get proper socialization with new people; so I get a little cautious and appreciate taking a little extra time forming new friendships with people. However, I am more comfortable with kids, they are so cute and sweet…the best cuddle partners let me tell you what! I can’t decide what is more fun, hanging out with cuddly kids, or lazy play-wrestling with another dog, or enjoying a peaceful nap with a cat.
If you want to help Ziggy write a letter to Urban Dictionary, submit your adoption application at the MAS website below…..he could really use your opposable thumbs!
