About Teddy

Meet Teddy. He’s the kind of dog that would inspire a country song. Teddy is a true Velcro dog, always wanting to be by your side. Loyal and loving, he's sweet and smart, ready to fill your life with joy and companionship. If he had to choose, he'd pick his humans over anything else, making his ideal hangout spot right next to you. While Teddy is great with other dogs, he gets a little too excited at times, so older children are recommended for his future home. One thing to note: Teddy is a clever little escape artist. He can climb a fence and has a knack for opening gates with his nose. Because of this, he'll need to be supervised outside and walked on a leash until he gets more comfortable in his new environment. This loving boy isn’t just seeking any home; he wants a person to follow around, greet like an old friend, and share his life with wholeheartedly. If you're on the lookout for a devoted companion with a sprinkle of mischief, Teddy might just be your perfect match. At 2 years old, he’s neutered and heartworm negative, weighing around 70-80 lbs. He’s ready for a committed foster or adopter to bring him to Ohio. Click apply to start the adoption process.
