Message From Ziggy


I just heard that today is the national Pit Bull Awareness Day.  I have to say, I'm rather sad about how I've been treated today.  No one has acknowledged my presence.  My foster mom got up early to go to an adoption event, and she left me at home.  Alone.  In my crate.  She didn't even leave me a chew bone.  Oh wait, yes she did.  But I ate it so fast I almost forgot about it.  Does anyone remember me, here all alone?  I'm a pit bull.  Today's my day.  Where is the awareness?



 Ha ha - Did I fool ya?  I'm not really sad!  I am sure that I am one of the luckiest homeless pit bulls in the entire city of Foley, MO. I get to do agility and go on walks and I even get really yummy chew bones and treats from people sometimes.  I have lots of friends and people who care about me.  There are a lot of homeless pit bulls that don't have any of those things.  Please remember that being a pit bull doesn't make a dog bad or scary.  And please be aware of all the other homeless pit bulls out there, who are not allowed to be adopted because of laws against their breed.  Happy Pit Bull Awareness Day!

Oh - the manipulation! You totally had me fooled too. You have a great foster home! When I helped out at a local animal shelter some years ago - I was one of the few volunteers that wasn't intimidated by the pit bulls. They were the sweetest and I loved taking them out of their kennels for a little exercise and to give them some much needed love and attention. Never once did they show any aggression towards me (or anyone else for that matter). They are all big marshmallows!

Hi Y'all,

Ziggy, I'd just keep milkin' that foster home! Heck you got it made fella! Suck up some more and it'll be your forever home. You'll be a failed foster! YES!

Y'all come by now,
