~~THIS IS A COURTESY POST. THIS DOG IS *NOT* IN THE CARE OF THE ALTERNATIVE HUMANE SOCIETY. TO LEARN MORE ABOUT FIG PLEASE REACH OUT TO HER OWNER AT [email protected] THANK YOU~~Fig (aka Ping, Pingus Amingus, Pig, and Piggle Wiggle) is a 7 year old ~35lb who I believe to be either a shiba or cattle dog mix. That’s right- she’s not a teddy bear. She has been spayed and is not up to date on her shots due to financial hardship and housing stability reasons. Fig is an affectionate, intelligent, opinionated companion who enjoys cuddles, exploration, and unfortunately for one’s nose..bully sticks. In fact, any type of animal body part treat is right up Fig’s alley but her real treat of choice is scritches on the sides of her neck. If you get juuuust the right spot, she will lean so hard into your hand that she will fall over if you don’t hold her up. She gives amazing “hugs” where she will hold on to you with her paw(s) and rub her head into your chest. The fur behind her ears is so delicate and soft, it’s almost like you can’t even feel it when you pet her there. She has been so hardy and healthy. I could count the number of soft poos she’s had on one hand. She knows sit, down…

In the rescue's own words, as they published it.
