Get ready for a Cinderella story! This girl went from rags to riches! Meet Figgy!
Figgy is estimated to be just about a year old or a bit under. She was surrendered to a vet’s office in southern Missouri in life threatening condition when the family said they didn’t want her any longer. Figgy was extremely malnourished, her body was covered in infection and weeping wounds due to mange and infested with numerous parasites, she was so diminished and weak she could barely hold her head upright.
Fast forward two months later, Figgy is thriving!
Figgy has clear skin and growing all her hair back - it is so soft but scruffy looking! She is at a healthy weight of 31 pounds! Figgy is potty trained and working on learning some basic commands. She loves to play with other dogs and would be happiest with a playful pup in her forever home!
She is curious but scared of the cat in her foster home. Figgy can be a handful for older dogs that want to nap a great portion of the day - as she is all about playing! She is the whole party in a medium sized package! She is affectionate and does stop for some snuggles here and there. Belly rubs are the perfect end to a long day of play!
If you are looking for a medium sized, playful pup, Figgy may be your girl!
