She is currently in one of our most experienced foster homes where she is getting homemade food, three walks a day and lots of TLC. She is loving her new surroundings, foster siblings and has a bounce in her step despite all the sudden changes and loss of her sister. She would love a forever home with companions — both human and furry.

Ziggy's current caretakers say:
He has been a perfect gentleman with both men and women, and non-alpha female dogs. Ziggy is extremely smart and potty trained, he likes to go out frequently so a doggie door would make this boy very happy.

Miko would be happier in a house with an owner who can give him more one-on-one time and hopefully also a furry sibling. Miko takes a few supplements for some very mild arthritis in his back legs.
