About Teddy

Teddy has been through the kind of heartbreak most dogs never should. Abandoned by owners who left him behind, he wandered back to find the house empty, no familiar faces left to greet him. With nowhere to go, Teddy stuck close to other dogs just to feel a little less alone. Through it all, he kept his sweet, soft spirit. Now Teddy is calm, easy on a leash, and patient even in stressful kennel environments. He loves stretching out in the grass and never misses a chance to chase a ball. Though he hasn’t joined any playgroups yet, he’s relaxed and observant around other dogs. Teddy is said to be great with kids and would thrive in a stable, caring home that can offer real companionship. As a fun note, Teddy is a Pisces—loyal, gentle, and endlessly hopeful.
