Story

Marti Colwell 10:43 AM (3 hours ago) to Sharon, Terez Hello New Friends, My name is Jiggs, but my friends call me Jiggety Jig, Jiggers, Jiggaloo, Jiggy, and Lil' Jig. I'm a three-year-old little fluff weighing just 8 pounds and quite the ladies man! Although I’m small in stature, my heart is much bigger than my actual size! Mom told me I should start by mentioning my eyes. I have big, soulful brown eyes that make me hard to resist. I also have an expressive face that communicates what I'm thinking. Most of the time, what I'm thinking is, "Can I come with you?" because being close to my people is my favorite thing in the world. I'm a sweet, loving boy who absolutely LOVES to be petted. If you walk towards me, chances are I'll roll right onto my back and offer my tummy for belly rubs. Every now and then I'll let you pick me up, but honestly, I'd rather keep all four paws on the ground (so I can follow you wherever you're going.) I take my job as your little shadow very seriously! My foster family says I'm a mellow, quiet fellow who thrives on routine. When life is predictable and I know where my people are, I'm one happy boy with a wagging tail. In fact, I don't always come when called—unless it's dinner time or bedtime—but don't worry, because I'll be following you wherever you go and resting nearby whenever I can. I get along with other dogs, cats, and people, but I'm also a shy boy who is still learning that the world is a safe place. I'll need a patient family, preferably someone experienced with helping dogs build confidence and social skills. Once I trust you, my loving personality shines through and you'll see just how special I am! I'd love a home where someone is home most of the time because I'd much rather spend my day with you than by myself. Usually I'm very quiet, but if I can't find you, you might hear a howl that sounds more like a lone wolf than an eight-pound bundle of fluff! I am housebroken, healthy, ride nicely in the car, and I'm eager to learn. Every day I'm becoming a little braver and more confident. I've begun to walk on a leash and have even started accepting the treats I previously turned down, For me, it's all about feeling safe, loved, and secure. When I do, my confidence grows and my sweet personality blossoms. Oh, and before I forget, Dad wanted me to tell you that I have a “shoe fascination.” Now I don't chew shoes—I simply move them around. He thinks I'm trying to organize them. (Maybe I secretly wear them when nobody's looking. A gentleman never tells!) My Ideal Home: * A loving home *Someone home most of the time *Adults (females preferred) * No other FurKids required (I want to be the center of someone’s world! * A nice yard to run and sun in Experience level: *Have had dogs as an adult *Recent/current dog experience a plus I'm beautiful, loving, shy, intelligent, and soulful. My Mom and Dad agree that I'm one of the sweetest boys in the world. All I'm looking for is a forever family, a yard of my own to explore, lots of cuddles, and a home where I can spend my days loving and being loved. Please ask for me! I’ll be waiting and learning new things every day. Tail wags and more, Joyous Jiggs
