Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, I’m Teddy! I am an approx. 18 month old Yorkie mix weighing 9 pounds. I came from a house that had too many dogs, so I was surrendered to get the attention I needed and to find a loving home.
I am house trained, and also crate trained. I sound like a fire engine when I want out of my crate or your attention, so apartment living would not be for me.
I am a velcro dog - I attached to my foster mom quickly but love all adults I've met. Truth be told I'm not a fan of little kids, so I'd be looking for a home with kids over 8, or an adult only home.
Cats I could live with. I only met a 6 week old kitten we were fostering. As long as it did its thing while I did mine. We were fine.
I've been around dogs of all sizes, but I prefer calm dogs. I'd be fine as a only dog, king of the castle.
I get excited by toys, but what I like most of all is human attention!
I am neutered, vaccinated with distemper/parvo, bordetella and rabies vaccines, heartworm negative and on heartworm, flea & tick prevention, dewormed and microchipped. My adoption fee is $525. I am currently fostered in the south suburbs of Chicago. If you'd like to meet me, please head over to www.heathersfosterdogs.org, click on Adoption Application, and submit your application online, where it will be forwarded to my foster mom. We serve the general Chicagoland area and Northwest Indiana. (We do not ship dogs).
