Ziggy

Ziggy is a 1 year old adorable male German Shorthaired Pointer. Ziggy is smart, playful, affectionate, and the kind of dog that seems ready for adventure the second you meet him. He rides well in the car and will jump right in and settle down quickly. He is very respectful of other dogs, and never stops wagging his tail.

Ziggy is a young and very active GSP, and will need a home with someone who has experience with the breed, and will make sure he gets his daily training, exercise and stimulation. A walk around the block won’t cut it for this boy. These dogs are made for activity, and agility is a great tool! Agility training not only provides exercise, it builds confidence. And the bonus, it builds a relationship between you and the dog doing this type of training together.

The Challenges:

It is unknown if Ziggy is house trained - we presume he is not, so he will need to be house trained in a new environment so he can learn the routine

Ziggy is a young GSP, and needs plenty of daily exercise and training every day. No days off.

Needs training

Ziggy does pull on walks, so he will need to learn how to walk better on a leash.

What our volunteers are saying about Ziggy:

Pulls a little on leash, so needs some work

Loves playing with the ball, chases it but doesn't bring it back

A real sweetheart

Wiggly body when he is excited

His little tail is always wagging

Enjoys getting attention and affection
