About Teddy

Meet Teddy! This adorable 8-month-old medium breed puppy is on a journey to find his forever home. Fearful of new people and places, Teddy needs a family that will give him time and space to feel comfortable. Once you earn his trust, he shows his affectionate side and becomes an incredibly sweet companion. Teddy would thrive with a confident, social dog of similar size to help boost his confidence. He's currently working on housetraining and basic obedience, so patience and gentle guidance will be important. A quieter home with adults and teens is ideal for him. If you're interested in Teddy, we invite you to stop by our Dedham shelter to meet him. Teddy is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and microchipped. Please note that the rescue welcomes adopters from NH, RI, CT, and NY, but same-day adoptions are not possible due to paperwork regulations. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
