Ziggy

aka "the Sweet and Polite One"

Ziggy is a 4 year old Cardigan Welsh Corgi who's registered name is Xtacee Tag You're It.  He's earned some performance titles in Obedience and Rally, so his "full" name is Xtacee Tag You're It CGC BN RA.

Ziggy is sweet, loving, and unfailingly polite.  He's the easiest-to-manage dog we've got, and has the most expressive face of any dog I've had.  This makes it easy to read what he's thinking.

Ziggy's handsome, too - with remarkable ears and
a lovely and uncommon black-brindle color


Ziggy came to us at 16 weeks old
He was all ears and paws


I mentioned that Ziggy is easy-going and polite
He gets along well with our other dogs
Here he is on the sofa with Rip


Here he is with Maggie
Apparently he makes a good pillow


Ziggy is easy going, but he's also our best guard dog
He's got a DEEP bark, and keeps a watchful eye on the neighborhood


Ziggy loves to play and frap
Chasing Rip around the playground is FUN!!


Another of Ziggy's loves is Crayons
This means we help Crayola's bottom line
and get to clean up colorful things in the yard...


Ziggy loves furniture
Deck furniture in the summer is the best --
it's comfortable and provides a great view of the yard


See what I mean about an expressive face?


Ziggy can be a fantastic Obedience and Rally dog when he's "on"
(I just wish he was "on" more often)
Here's his ribbons from a win at Rally Novice - score of 99!


Ziggy has a lovely heel position (see note above about being "on")
I love the smiley, heads-up, tails-up look he's got here!


Ziggy is also a great dog for Brace Obedience
I think he likes it more than regular classes....


Ziggy's greatest joy is kids
He loves to have kids snuggle and pet him
I've seen him happy as happy can be surrounded by 6 kids...
This is his friend from soccer matches


Remember what I said about Ziggy being polite?
He really never pulls on the leash...
...unless we're going to the school to see the kids!
