About Terry

🐶 Basics ● Terry, aka Tezza, Baby Boy ● Age / Size: 5 Months, 25lbs ● Rescued in Texas 💙 Foster Note If you dont want to get stopped on the street or in the park then Teddy isnt for you. He is an absolute wonderful angel of a dog. He is extremely loving and playful - he wants to sit and cuddle and play with you but equally once he gets into a dog park is ready to run off and make some friends. He has a very gentle nature, I've never seen him demonstrate any kind of aggression either to people or other animals he truly just wants to be everyone's friend. He wants to please and is very trainable picking up new tricks and new confidence in new areas / experiences. Ultimately I think Terry’s golden star is his adaptability for different household or situations I could imagine him as happy as a family dog as he would be living in an apartment going on lots of walks and getting attention. 💛 Personality Snapshot ● Describe in 3–5 words: Curious, Affectionate, Intelligent, Loving ● Energy level (Low / Moderate / High): Moderate, still a puppy so lots of naps in between higher energy moment s ● More people‑oriented or independent? He loves to be around people, but is happy once tired to take himself to a corner for a little nap. ● How do they handle new situations? A little nervous at first but then warms up - even when nervous he's never aggressive and just want reassurance 🐕 Social & Home Life ● How are they with people (adults/kids/new people)? Love Loves people and new dogs. ● How are they with other dogs? Wants to play, a little apprehensive of bigger dogs but then just wants to play - loves the dog park ● Behavior when left alone or when guests visit: As he is 5 months we havent really had the opportunity leave him alone just yet but he is happy to take himself to other rooms we are not in 🎓 Training & Manners ● Potty trained? Yes but as a puppy we take him out regularly ● Crate trained? no ● Leash skills: very good on the lead ● Commands known (if any): Sit 🌞 Daily Life ● Typical day with you: Wake up to lots of cuddles and a quick pee break. Loves a morning play in the dog park before chilling out for the day while I work playing with his toys in between naps. More cuddles before a coffee shop walk and some training practice. ● Exercise needs: I’ve been taking him on a morning walk to the dog park to play and socialise and then an evening walk before bed ● Favorite activities or toys: loves chew toys 🌱 Growth Areas ● Anything they’re still working on? We are working on learning to come 🏡 Ideal Home ● Only dog / With dog / Either: I think they would be fine in any kind of household ● Good fit for apartment living? They are a medium size dog so I dont think would do well in a small household INTERESTED IN ADOPTING?
