Ziggy is a March 2012 alumnus of the Shelby Humane Society. He was transported to the New Hampshire Humane Society in Laconia, NH and then adopted by Tom and Colleen Jarvela. Since then, Ziggy has become quite the mountaineer as you’ll see in his story below … Enjoy!
We wanted to write and give you an update on how Ziggy has been doing since we adopted him 2 months ago. He has been very well behaved, has been learning quickly, but still has room for improvement.
He has quickly adapted to our active life styles and has been going on daily runs and walks with us. Every weekend is filled with hiking and other dogs to play with. He just recently finished hiking all of the mountains in the Belknap range and will be receiving his patch soon. The next goal is for him to hike all of the 4,000′ peaks in the state. He is well on his way after completing Mt. Moriah yesterday. This was his 5th peak of the 48 total 4,000′ footers.
