My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Miss Piggie was found on a back road in the middle of nowhere. Cold, starving and scared Miss Piggie was defensive and barked at everyone that approached her. Luckily an officer reached out to a staff member for help. After many hotdog pieces and talking, Miss Piggie was able to be looped. She was happy to be snuggled in a warm blanket on the way to the shelter.

Miss Piggie is still shy and slowly opening up to meeting new people. She will need multiple meetings with her new family. Older kids will be best due to her fearfulness towards strangers. She is also learning that other dogs can be friends.

If you think Miss Piggie will be the right fit for you apply today!

*Miss Piggie is currently at the shelter. We will not know how her house training will be.
