Story
(DOB 11/27/2019) Teddy is a young, adorable dog who may be a little shy at first, but don't let that fool you. This sweet boy is full of love and joy—once he’s comfortable and trusts you, his goofy, playful side shines through! Teddy’s perfect for a patient and understanding owner who values slow and steady trust-building. He has a unique charm, especially with his adorable mismatched ears—one perked up and one flopped over—giving him a look that’s simply irresistible.
When it comes to walks, Teddy is a well-behaved companion who enjoys leash time and exploring his surroundings, though he's happiest when things move at his own pace. He would love a home with a fenced yard where he can run and romp and just be a dog. It isn't a deal breaker if there isn't a fence; his new peeps would just need to provide him with plenty of walks and entertainment. He has no problem taking an opportunity of an open gate or door and making a mad dash, so be sure to be aware of where he is at all times to keep this little "escape artist" safe.
Teddy’s ideal home would be one where he is receiving all the love and attention he deserves. He is good with other dogs and would be happy in a home with another friendlyfurry friend or he could be an only dog. He just wants to be loved and spoiled. Teddy will reward you with his loyalty, affection, and a heart full of love.
Right now, Teddy is working on his house training and doing well. His new family will need to make sure they keep him on a regular routine. Teddy is a bit mouthy/nippy so be aware this is something he is working on. Teddy is a dog who loves his special things, especially his food and toys, and he feels most comfortable when these items are just for him. This means he thrives in an environment where he can enjoy his meals and playtime in peace. With the right guidance and understanding, Teddy will feel secure and confident, knowing he doesn't have to share his favorite things with other dogs.
Teddy is crate trained and he really likes to hang out there at times...kind his little sanctuary. He enjoys eating his meals and settling down for the night in there, and it provides him with the comfort and security he craves.
If you’re ready to help Teddy come out of his shell, you’ll be rewarded with a loyal companion who will cherish you forever. He may take a little extra time to feel comfortable, but once he does, he’ll be the loving, goofy best friend you’ve been waiting for. Give this sweet boy a chance—you won’t regret it!
As part of Teddy’s $300 adoption fee, he will be neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.
