About Twiggy

Meet Twiggy, a 4.5-month-old Terrier mix looking for her forever home. This brave little girl was rescued from a difficult situation in Louisiana, where she and her siblings lived in the roots of a downed tree. After being brought to safety, Twiggy has blossomed in her foster home. While she can be skittish and unsure at times, her desire for affection quickly shines through. You'll often find her timidly cuddling under chairs or snoozing on the steps, following her foster parent around as a shy little shadow. Twiggy would thrive best in a home that has another friendly dog and where patience and training are part of the process of helping her embrace life’s fun side. She’s great with kids aged 10 and over, gets along well with other dogs and cats, and is already spayed and up to date on vaccinations. Twiggy is ready to begin her new chapter in life — could that be with you? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
