Ziggy's Advertising Campaign

Ziggy has never been accused of being too humble.  In his mind, he’s not “just a dog”, he’s ZIGGY!  So it’s no surprise that he insisted on a “Wall of Fame” on his webpage.  I tried to convince him that nobody likes a braggart, but he refused to listen.  He seems sure that if the rest of the world will just realize how special he is, they will be lining up to adopt him.  Since I absolutely refused to let him brag about the number of common household items that he has chewed up, or the amount of kibble he can eat in one sitting, he had to settle for bragging about his few awards and media appearances.  I said to him – Ziggy, don’t you think listing all the websites that have shared your desire for a home just makes you seem desperate?  But again, he pretended he couldn’t hear me.  So I gave in, and helped Ziggy add a new page to his website.  Now Ziggy is asking me to contact even more blogs and websites to ask for help in sharing his desire for a home.  If you have a blog or website and share Ziggy’s story and his need for a home, please let him know (his e-mail is Ziggy@adoptziggy.com) so he can add it to his list.   Or as he so proudly refers to it – his Wall of Fame.

Hi Laura, I'm wondering if you'veposted Ziggy on aqny dog or horse forums. That's how I found Alf a home (the best home EVER) If it's ok to cross post, I'd be happy to!

I still am having blogger issues so I can't do a blog post. Mostof the time I can't even follow blogs, today just haapens to be the day I can.

Email me if I can help! giantspeckledchihuahuaatlivedotcom

Please tell Ziggy that he has a really really good webpage and his video is wonderful!
I hope he finds a home very very soon!

That video on Ziggy's website is adorable. He is a beyond beautiful dog and that praying trick is my favorite trick I have ever seen. I would think that would get him adopted on the spot!

This makes me want to start my own blog for Blueberry just so I can post Ziggy on there!

Really - with all of his accomplishments - how can no one out there want to adopt him? I know his forever human is out there somewhere and when that person meets Ziggy - he or she will say to Zig - "you complete me".
