About Telly

Meet Telly, an 11-pound bundle of joy who is about 6 years old. Telly came to us from a breeding and hoarding situation in Texas and is now adjusting beautifully to life in a loving home. This affectionate little girl loves to follow her favorite humans around the house, soaking in every moment. Telly has a gentle nature, making her a fantastic companion for those who appreciate a quieter lifestyle. She enjoys snuggling and simply being close to her trusted caregivers. While she’s still getting accustomed to the outside world, a fenced yard would help her explore safely. She's currently pee pad trained and is learning crate training along with outdoor potty habits. Telly is beginning to grasp basic commands and is food motivated. Though she can be shy and prefers to take her time in new environments, she coexists well with other small dogs. Telly would thrive in a calm home with older kids who can respect her need for a little time to adjust. Her future family should be ready to help her build confidence and enjoy a loyal friend who just wants to share life’s gentle moments. With her endearing personality and low-shedding coat, Telly is all set to leave her past behind and become your cherished snuggle buddy.
