A dog named FIG
(Found in Garbage)

A trashy story of furry redemption

FIG, or Found in Garbage

FIG, or Found in Garbage, was thrown away at a landfill, only to be rescued by a loving family. While her fur was originally matted and short, the more love FIG got the more her fur grew. FIG now has a mane of wiry blonde hair that is perfect for rubs.

FIG is the star of her very own children’s book, FIG the Garbage Dog. She’s also a trash and recycling expert, avid treat critic, and pet adoption advocate.
