Tiggy's Past Doesn't Define Her—Her Heart Does

Tiggy is 7 years old, toothless, gentle, affectionate, and full of love. She has already been through more than any dog should have to endure, but somehow, she has remained happy, resilient, and grateful for every bit of love she receives.

Tiggy came to us from a flea-infested home where she suffered from severe flea dermatitis. She was later attacked by a much larger dog, leaving her with serious damage to her jaw. As a result of her injuries and medical needs, Tiggy has had all of her teeth removed.

But none of that has changed the dog she is.

Tiggy loves snuggles and belly rubs and is happiest when she's curled up beside her people. She is a gentle companion who wants nothing more than to share her life with someone who will see past everything she's been through and recognize the loving dog underneath it all.

Unfortunately, dogs like Tiggy can face additional challenges when it comes to finding their forever homes. Older dogs and dogs with medical histories are sometimes overlooked, even though they have just as much love to give—and often so much gratitude to share.

As part of Waggle's DOGust contest celebrating dogs who are easy to love but can have a harder time finding homes, we're raising funds to help provide Tiggy with the additional veterinary care she needs.

By supporting Tiggy's campaign and helping us compete in DOGust, you're also helping shine a light on the other older and harder-to-place dogs in our care. If we receive enough public votes to win a DOGust prize, those funds will be used toward the additional veterinary care these dogs need.

Tiggy has already survived so much. Now, she deserves to be known for what she is today: a happy, loving girl who still has so much life and love to give.

She may be overlooked by some, but Tiggy is more lovable than you can imagine.

Please help us give Tiggy the care she needs while continuing to stand behind the older dogs who need us most.

Thank you for helping these deserving dogs get the chance to be seen, loved, and cared for. ❤️
