Met Fig, a one year-old mixed breed at the Wellington SPCA.
"My name is Fig and I am looking for my forever home. I haven't had the best start to life so I am eager for a second chance at happiness and love. I am looking for a home that has had experience with dogs before. I am a smarty pants so would love a home that has the time and patience to channel that energy into training, which I have not had prior to SPCA. I can guarantee I will pick things up very quickly. I also happen to be very food motivated. My new home would need to have someone around for parts or most of the day as I am not yet used to being left alone for long periods. I would thrive better in a home where I have company. I have proven to be a bit of an escape artist so my new home would need to have high fencing at least 2 meters."
