Ziggy is the cutest little 23-pound short-stack you will ever see. At the end of the day, she is the very definition of a cuddle bug. She will wrap herself around you and snore softly. And BONUS – she does not shed!!
We’re not exactly sure what breeds this little girl is a mix of – maybe a bit of Basset Hound, a dash of Daschsund, a portion of Pittie. Whatever it is, it’s all good!
Ziggy came out of the shelter with some trust issues and, as a result, may be slow to warm up to strangers; but, after you’ve given her a chance to check you out, she is a doll. She loves being around her people – especially the one person she picks out as her best buddy. Then, you’ll see a little low-rider who will follow you everywhere.
Ziggy is completely housebroken and willingly goes into her crate at night – as long as she is in the same room as her peeps. She gets along beautifully with her foster Mom’s two dogs and loves to play – running around the yard, tossing sticks in the air and catching them. She is very athletic and can jump sky high when chasing a Frisbee. She walks extremely well on leash if you offer her leadership. She continues to work on her training to stay calm and balanced when encountering unfamiliar dogs. Oh, and she loves to ride shotgun in the car with you.
Ziggy is a delightful pup. However, because she needs time to warm up to people she will require an adopter who is an experienced dog owner and will show her patience and leadership – providing her with direction and guidance on how to trust people she is not familiar with. .Because she is wary of sudden movements toward her, she needs to be in a house with no small children.
Ziggy is a female Dachshund/Beagle mix whose estimated DOG is ~March 2015. She is spayed, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations.
