Ziggy is a 2-year-old Sheepadoodle who found himself back in rescue after a previous adoption didn’t work out. His former family loved him, but his energy level was more than they expected, and a single nip incident (when a visitor knelt down and got in his face) led them to realize they weren’t the right fit. The other rescue was unable to take him back due to insurance regulations—so now Ziggy is here, still the same good dog, just waiting for the right environment to shine.
Ziggy is a classic doodle: big, bright, energetic, and smart. He knows his basic commands, loves to move, and while he may pull on leash at first, he settles once he gets going. He needs structure, activity, and a purpose—this is not a couch-potato dog, but a working-dog brain in a fluffy body.
Why Ziggy Could Be Your Perfect Partner
🐾 Age: 2 years
🐾 Large Sheepadoodle (bigger than average OES)
🐾 Intelligent, energetic, and eager to work
🐾 Knows basic commands and listens well
🐾 Good with other dogs, but needs slow, thoughtful introductions
🐾 Reported to be okay with cats, though he can become overstimulated
🐾 Will require regular professional grooming
What Ziggy Is Looking For
✔️ A dog-savvy, adult-only home (no children)
✔️ Adopters who understand energetic, working-style dogs
✔️ Someone who can provide structure, exercise, and mental stimulation
✔️ A family prepared for grooming needs and costs
✔️ Patience with introductions and ongoing training
Ziggy isn’t a “problem dog.” He’s a powerful, intelligent, high-energy dog who simply needs the right job and the right people. In the right hands, he’s going to be an incredible companion.
