On July 20th at 2:15 in the morning we received our bundle of joy. My boyfriend and I had decided to adopt a dog together. This was a difficult process as we have 2 vastly different preferences in dogs. I like medium to smallish dogs, cute, cuddly and suck. Chris likes big & playful dogs. However, as we are in a smallish apartment I won't the battle and Veli, now Ziggy was our only valid candidate. This picture was taken a couple of weeks after we got him. There were some trust issues in the beginning but he seemed to warm up quickly enough. I can confirm the the is still a runner and takes every possible opportunity he can to bolt, but he does loves us.

This is Ziggy on October 31st. People kept asking is we got a new dog and I would laugh and say "no! of course not" not understanding how different he looks. It's amazing what a few months of love and care can do. Side by side I am amazed at his transformation. He's gone through puppy school and passed and can now follow commands (when he feels like it). He like to be snuggled but only outside, which is where he has decided to live as he finds houses to cramped. We still need to work on his bolting habit, but all in good time.
