This wee girl is just the sweetest! She’s a very affectionate little dog that is more than happy just to sit with a human and be loved.

Figgy was found as a stray, running in the road with a puppy who was rescued along with her by an animal lover. We don’t believe that the puppy, little Sprout, is her puppy, but she certainly acts like his mother. We think that she must have been letting him eat whatever food they found because she was in a very sorry state, malnourished and weak whereas he was far healthier.

Figgy spent a few days at the vets bringing her back to strength and is being fostered by Constantina so that she can be safe, warm and well fed. She’s now almost reached a healthy weight, her coat is lovely and thick and she’s healthy and happy!

Sweet Figgy is very patient with her little puppy companion, letting him bounce around and bother her, only occasionally telling him enough is enough. She really is a very sweet-natured dog.

We think this little girl will make a wonderful addition to any family.
