About Ziggy

Meet Ziggy, a 6-year-old neutered Jack Russell Terrier mix who has a big heart to match his slightly larger size. This easygoing fellow was surrendered by his owner without any fault of his own. In his previous home, certain areas were off-limits due to family allergies, but Ziggy thrived as a beloved companion. He gets along beautifully with dogs, children, and strangers alike. Ziggy is housebroken, crate-trained, and remarkably quiet for a dog of his kind; he rarely barks and doesn’t feel the need to react to barking from others. While he’s not one to chase after balls, Ziggy is a total joy with his laid-back demeanor. He does have some seasonal allergies, so his future family should be prepared to manage that. At 6 years old, Ziggy is beyond the puppy phase and is eagerly waiting for a loving home where he can simply be part of the family. Ready to meet Ziggy? Click apply to start the adoption process.
