Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, my name is Fig, which is an adorable name created by an acronym for FOUND IN GARBAGE. I guess that explains my tragic start in life, found in a garbage dumpster and then brought to a veterinary clinic in San Antonio Texas. Thankfully a very nice lady fostering dogs for 4 Little Paws Rescue was inside and overheard the conversation about putting me back outside. The next thing I know, I’m in her arms, she became my foster mom, and I then had my first vet visit.
I'm 5 months old, I’m a boy, I’m a Shepherd mix, I currently weigh 19 lbs, and I am a looker. I was instantly friendly and sweet and didn't mind everyone looking me over that day, and most importantly, I was healthy and uninjured. These days I am still healthy, friendly, and sweet and vet visits still don't bother me. I am outgoing and smart with a curious nature, a typical puppy with a happy waggy tail and lots of kisses and snuggles to give out. Playtime and puppy toys rock my world and I'm looking forward to my next adventure. I just moved to Connecticut and hanging out at my new foster home where I get to play with other puppies and dogs of every size in a backyard. It's very fun. There is a little chihuahua here who bosses me around. I let her cause she is a girl and I am a gentleman. But my favorite friends are human. I am a lover and a cuddler. I enjoy pets and kisses and gazing lovingly into my people's eyes. I am potty trained and am getting really good at walking on a leash! Come meet me and expect to fall in love!! You will not see another puppy who is as handsome as me, I promise!
