About Teddy

Teddy is a delightful small dog fostering in Norwalk, CT. At about 3.5 years old and weighing around 12 lbs, he’s a charming mix of Miniature Poodle and Yorkshire Terrier, with a beautifully growing golden coat that will need regular grooming. He thrives on companionship and loves to settle in a lap, often seeking attention and affection. While he gets along with most dogs, he prefers a calm environment—active pups that invade his space can be a bit too much for him. Teddy is in good shape with his house training; however, he benefits from a little guidance. He enjoys leash walks and car rides. Given his need for peace during meal times, he would do best in a home without young children and with an experienced owner. This caring companion is ready to enrich someone’s life with his loving personality. The adoption fee is $500, which covers all vaccinations, spaying, and microchipping. To make Teddy yours, apply today!
