Ziggy is a funny little bundle of joy, energy, and affection.

Ziggy is still a puppy, and will continue to grow. He is on the smaller side, but has an abundance of affection and cuteness!

Ziggy is a well-adjusted puppy who has been hand raised. He has never shown any signs of aggression of any kind, including food aggression, although he can occasionally be a little rambunctious. All of the puppies are fed together, and typically choose to share bowls.

Ziggy is used to playing and sleeping with the other dogs on the property. He is well socialized, both with humans and dogs. While I have never seen him interact with a cat, I have no reason to anticipate a problem.
