My story

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

Little Teddy, a spunky and lovable chihuahua boy, came into foster care the Sunday before Thanksgiving and has been charming everyone since. This medium-energy pup loves to explore, cuddle, and keep life interesting with his playful antics.

Daily Life with Teddy:
Teddy starts his day around 7:00 am with his foster siblings (though he'd happily sleep in!). After a morning potty break and breakfast, he alternates between bursts of playful energy-like discovering treasures to bring into the room-and relaxing on the couch for some downtime. His curious nature means he's always ready for an adventure, but he's also a great snuggle buddy.

A Few of Teddy's Talents:

Explorer Extraordinaire: Whether it's a shoe or a tissue, Teddy loves collecting items and showing off his finds.
A+ Crate Manners: He's perfectly content in his crate or playpen, even when home alone for a few hours.
Leash Star: Teddy enjoys his walks, sniffing everything in sight, and keeping pace like a pro.
What Makes Teddy Special:
This little guy is affectionate, sweet, and gentle-even when his foster siblings get a bit sassy. He's made great strides in potty training and sleeps soundly in his crate at night. Teddy loves chew sticks, bully sticks, and playing with toys (though he may leave them scattered around for added character).

Teddy's Ideal Home:
He'd thrive in a home with another playful pup but would also be happy as the center of attention in a solo-dog household. His perfect family will have time to walk, play, and invest in some basic training to help him learn commands like "sit and "stay and "come."

Ready for a loving, curious companion with a heart of gold? Little Teddy is waiting to meet you!
