My story

If you`re looking for a dog with a big heart and even bigger personality, Ziggy is your guy! This two-year-old terrier mix came to us as a stray. Ziggy is always eager to get out and explore the world around him! He adores toys and is a super playful boy! While he brings a lot of enthusiasm to playtime, he’s still learning some boundaries (we all get a little carried away when we’re having fun, right?). For this reason, he’d do best in an adult only home, where he can continue to work on polite play. This guy already knows `sit` and `paw` and is friendly with everyone. On leash, Ziggy`s excitement sometimes turns into strong pulling but with a little training and patience, he`s sure to improve. Ziggy is full of potential, ready for adventures, and would thrive with an active, toy-loving human who’s excited to guide him as he continues to learn and grow. Could Ziggy be the missing piece in your life? Come meet him today because he’s ready to wiggle right into your heart! If you are interested in learning more contact our placement team at the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter:E: Adoption@hempsteadny.govE: Foster@hempsteadny.govE: Rescue@hempsteadny.govT. 516.785.5220#adoptableshelterdogs #adoptables #longislandpetparents #nyc #newyorkrescuedogs #longislandrescues #longislandanimalshelter #animalshelter #municipality #municpalshelter #dogsoftheworld #dogsoflongisland #dogs #dog #puppy #pups #adoptadog #adoptapuppy #ziggythedog #adoptadog #adoptableshelterpets
