Once a nervous little dog with a very big bark, he is now far more confident, playful, and secure. He absolutely loves other playful small dogs and will happily play all day with the right companion. He would also be perfectly content as an only dog — as long as he has lots of toys, because Teddy loves toys more than anything. Teddy originally came to us from a local shelter after being surrendered for slipping out the front door multiple times. Now that he’s safe and supported, he is blossoming into a bright, affectionate, and charming young dog who is ready for a fresh start. He can be shy when meeting new people, but once he warms up, Teddy becomes a cuddly, devoted companion who loves to snuggle and stay close. He enjoys toys, playtime, and is very food&#226&#128&#145motivated — especially when his foster mom remembers to pay the “cheese tax.” Teddy enjoys his daily walks and spending time outside. A fenced yard would be wonderful for him, as he likes to explore, sniff, and “help” with gardening. He is crate trained, quiet, and doing very well with housetraining. With his young age and all the changes he has been through, he may need a little adjustment time in a new home, but he is very close to being fully reliable. He has been recently groomed and will need regular grooming to keep him comfortable and looking his best. Other Pets & Children Teddy does best with small dogs and enjoys playing with them. Large dogs overwhelm him, and he may bark out of fear. He also tends to bark at cats, so a home without feline friends is best. Ideal Home Teddy will in a home where he is loved and given lots of attention! He would be happy as an only dog or with a compatible small dog. He is looking for someone patient, kind, and willing to give him time to adjust. Once he knows he is safe, Teddy becomes a devoted little shadow who follows his people with love and trust. He is also wonderful in the car — calm, quiet, and easy to travel with.
