𝗩𝗼𝗹𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀 This little boy is so incredibly smol, not just because he?s very underweight and still a pup, but he?ll be on the smaller side as he matures. Zig is so thin I can put my hand around his spine and nearly loop my fingers around his belly, and he has an injury to his back leg that has led to significant decreased muscle tone. Aside from those health matters, Zig is so sweet and docile, he let me pull him into my lap and just love on him, giving him kisses and ear scratches and belly rubs. He seems to know sit and loooooved the treats I offered (and anything edible he found along the way to the runs). Perhaps once he?s in a home with consistent food, Ziggy will be more the wiggly energetic puppy he should be, but I found him to be quite calm and very polite for his young age.
