About Ziggy
Ziggy is a striking 5-year-old mix of Chihuahua and Cattle Dog, weighing in at 29 pounds. This affectionate boy is ready to find his forever family. Rescued from an overcrowded shelter in Houston, Texas, Ziggy has made his way to Colorado, where he hopes to thrive in a loving home. A little shy around new faces, Ziggy opens up beautifully once he feels secure. He enjoys cozying up on the couch and following his humans around the house. If you're looking for a loyal companion, Ziggy might just be your perfect match. Ziggy thrives in a home with plenty of outdoor space, where he can unleash his playful spirit. His favorite activities include chasing squirrels and playing with his dog pals. While he does best in a yard setting, he prefers to avoid walks in busy neighborhoods. A smart cookie, Ziggy knows commands like 'sit' and enjoys showing off his tricks, especially when treats are involved. He gets along splendidly with other dogs, excelling at daycare where he has formed friendships with Marvel, Bear, and Maggie. His playful nature and love for cuddles make him a favorite among staff. Ziggy is 100% potty trained and has excellent house manners. He is neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and tested for heartworms. Though he is blind in one eye from an old scar, it doesn’t hinder him; he navigates beautifully with his good eye. To ensure Ziggy’s continued happiness and confidence, Farfel's Rescue seeks adopters committed to positive reinforcement training. This caring approach strengthens the bond between Ziggy and his new family. Ziggy is available for adoption now!
