Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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


Ziggy is a sweet, silly, and loving 4.5 year old dog that we have loved having as part of our family. He was rescued from Tennessee and had a rough start to life, but he has come a long, long way. Ziggy is still a very nervous pup and would prefer a very quiet environment. Ziggy is dog reactive and should be in a home without other pets or children. We recently welcomed a baby, and while he has shown no aggression, he is clearly very uncomfortable with her and is having to be locked away for longer and longer stretches, which isn’t fair to him. We’re heartbroken to be taking this step, but we know that Ziggy can make someone else as happy as he has made us.

Ideally, we would like to see Ziggy land with experienced dog owners who live in a quiet and spacious environment without other pets. We do have another dog that he’s great with, so it’s possible that with the right dog (extremely patient, not assertive) and proper introductions, he could thrive in a two-dog home.
