Dear sweet Figaro (Figgy for short) is a happy-go-lucky little dog who pranced right out of the Salinas Animal Services shelter and into our arms! Figgy was picked up as a stray and was in rough shape initially, but we have got him all cleaned up and with the help of his loving foster family he has proven himself to be a wonderful pup. Initially shy, Figgy warms up quickly to a new home. He is unfazed by other dogs and friendly with meeting new people.

Figgy is gentle, sweet, and not a barker. He does not shed and is easy to handle, allowing baths and grooming like a champ! This little guy likes to snuggle but isn't a clingy dog. Figgy's good on walks, loves car rides, and sleeps peacefully through the night. What more can you ask from such a good boy?

Figgy's ideal home would likely be a quiet place, either with or without other dogs. He will be a loving companion dog for a mature household; we don't know at present how he is with children.
