Senior dog gets adopted after spending more than 400 days at Florida shelter

Doral, FL – After spending more than 400 days in an animal shelter, Ziggy, a 9-year-old black and white boxer mix, finally received what he so desperately longed for: a loving home.

Ziggy arrived at the Miami-Dade Animal Pet Adoption and Protection Center in Doral, Florida, in July 2022 after being found as a lost pet. With hundreds of other pets arriving daily at the shelter and a decline in adoptions nationwide, Ziggy quickly became a long-term resident. 

That is until Jennie Lopez, a first time adopter, met him and immediately knew he was “her guy”.
