My personality

Why I need a new home

Human health issues (e.g. allergies, sickness)

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Ted was born on the morning of May 1st. He was the little runt of the litter. When his mom Bella (My sisters dog) was pushing, I helped her get him the rest of the way out as she was struggling. He came to me to snuggle up for warmth instead of mum. I knew he was going to be a sweetie and a from that moment on. He really is, too. His first taught trick was "boop". So he will boop his nose to your hand if you say it, my oldest taught him.
He knows sit, up up, lay down, and stay, as well. He is kennel trained and sleeps in it at night. We have glass bowls & toys to send with him as well, at request.

This is hard, as my youngest is allergic and I had no idea until I made the connection with his sickness.

He is also not the best with our cats. His urge to chase and pounce on them is too much for them, causing them stress too. I wouldn't recommend someone with cats adopt him.
