Here's what the humans have to say about me:
UPDATE: ADOPTION PENDING! Redwood Pals Rescue has a lovely dog available in our Teddy. Teddy is about 9 years old and looks like a catahoula and/or shepherd type mix, though it is hard to see his coloring in a photo. He is dog-friendly and cat-friendly, housebroken and crate trained. He comes when called and also sits on command.
Teddy had been adopted from the Humboldt County Animal Shelter about a year ago, but it turned out that the adopter turned around and returned Teddy to his former owner. When he showed up at the shelter again some weeks back, he had dropped from his healthy weight of 50 lbs. down to an emaciated 38 lbs. This sweet boy failed the shelter’s food aggression test by biting the prosthetic hand in his food bowl. Redwood Pals couldn’t get a rise out of him by any form of interfering with his food and have to assume that he was temporarily affected by coming in half-starved. He is once again at a good healthy weight and out of the shelter with Redwood Pals.
Teddy plays a rowdy game of chase with the resident dog at his temporary foster home, but seems able to adjust his play to the other dog’s preferences. He did very well on a walk around the dog park and trails at Hiller Park, even with big loose dogs running up to him and does very well on our group pack walks.
Teddy could use a foster or adoptive home where he can settle in. We wouldn’t be surprised if his foster falls in love with him! He is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. Please contact us if you can fit him into your home or if you would like more info.
