About Teddy Bear

Meet Teddy Bear! Teddy Bear is a 10-year-old Yorkshire Terrier with a vibrant personality and a heart to match. This charming little fellow was found as a stray near a Walmart in Georgia and has since received the dental care he needed here with us. Now, he's ready for a loving forever home. Even at his age, Teddy Bear has plenty of energy! He loves walks, playing with squeaky toys, and keeping tabs on his surroundings. Although he's small, he certainly believes he's the king of the hill. Teddy Bear has been around cats and seems to get along well—he gets excited to see them but remains friendly. He would do wonderfully with respectful children who understand how to interact with an older dog. However, when it comes to other dogs, Teddy Bear prefers to be the sole canine of the household. He enjoys being the center of attention and would thrive in a dog-free environment. Currently, he's on a wet food diet to support his recovery from dental surgery. Soon, he should be back to hard food. If you're seeking a devoted companion with a playful spirit and endless love to give, Teddy Bear might be just the match for you! Ready to fall in love?
