Meet Teddy, a fabulous 2-year-old Shorkie born under the vibrant sign of Libra! 🎉 Now, don’t let that birthday fool you; this little furball is still living his best 'Puppy' Era! Weighing in at a spirited 14.4 pounds, Teddy is nothing short of a whirlwind of enthusiasm, curiosity, and a touch of delightful mischief! 🐾 Teddy isn’t just playful; he’s *the* life of the party! Whether he’s happily pawing at his toys, engaging with his canine buddies, or joyfully bouncing around the yard, he turns every moment into an adventure! He’s your go-to buddy for all things fun—and when he powers down, oh boy, he becomes the snuggliest bundle of fur you could ever wish for! 🤗 Now, life has thrown this sweet boy a curveball. Teddy’s former owner sadly passed away, which means he’s currently on a crash course in his foster home. It’s an adjustment, but Teddy is ready for love and a fresh start! 💖 However, he does come with a few requirements to ensure he finds his forever home. Teddy absolutely **needs a fenced yard**. While he’s not an escape artist, he’s not one to shy away from a spontaneous adventure! If given the chance for a solo mission, he might just leave you in the dust, chuckling along the way as you try to catch him! 😂 He’s also on his journey to becoming housebroken. Teddy is making progress, but patience and consistency are key (don’t forget a sprinkle of humor and lots of love!). 🏠 He walks pretty well on a leash, though there’s a bit of pulling—no worries, he’ll improve! And surprise, he rides shockingly well in the car! 🚗 Despite his playful antics, Teddy has a gentle spirit and isn’t destructive—mostly. He’s not interested in chewing things up (aside from perhaps desqueaking a toy or two). When it’s bedtime, he happily snoozes in the ‘big human bed’ through the night. Rest assured, you’ll need your beauty sleep to keep up with this lively boy! 😴 Teddy would flourish in a home filled with love and active engagement from his humans. Because of his vibrant nature, a playful canine companion to help burn off energy is a must! Given his lively personality and vocal charm, this delightful pup is not suited for senior households or homes with shared walls. And don’t forget; Teddy does require professional grooming every 6 to 8 weeks—make sure to tip your groomer generously! 💇‍♂️ His adoption fee is $400, which covers all the essentials: spay or neuter, microchip, vaccines, heartworm testing, and prevention.
