My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

In April 2024, we brought Tiggy home from PAWS in Lincoln Park when she was just 6 months old. From her playful energy to her sweet snuggles, we fell in love with her in no time. She melts everyone's heart, she encounters.

Unfortunately, my husband developed a severe allergy to dogs that we weren’t aware of. After trying different treatments, we've had to face the heartbreaking reality that we can't keep Tiggy due to his health. Our greatest wish is to find her a loving home where she’ll continue to be cherished as much as she is with us.

Tiggy knows basic commands like sit, stay, and "bon appétit" (her cue to eat). She's great with both dogs and people, never showing any aggression. She loves the dog park and dog beaches near us. She's quiet and rarely barks. While energetic, she's learning not to jump on people—simply turning your back helps her calm down and sit patiently. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions—we are truly hoping to find a loving home for her!
