About Fig

Fig is a handsome 12-year-old Australian Shepherd mix with the sweetest soul. While he may not be the dog who runs up to greet you right away, underneath that shy exterior is a heart just waiting for someone to believe in him. Fig will need time, patience, and understanding as he learns that not all people are bad. Every small step forward is a huge victory for him, and watching his confidence grow will be incredibly rewarding. If you're the kind of person who understands that trust takes time, Fig will reward you with a bond unlike any other. Sometimes the dogs who need the most patience end up loving the hardest.

Ideal Home

Fig would thrive in a quiet, low-stress home where he can settle in at his own pace. A confident, friendly doggie companion would be a big bonus, helping show him that the world isn't such a scary place.

Ongoing Health

Fig is a senior dog.

Training & Support

Fig will need time, patience, and understanding as he learns that not all people are bad.
