About Teddy in New England

Meet Teddy, everyone’s lovable companion from Waitsfield, VT. This big, golden furball may not have arrived with his name, but he wears it proudly, embodying the warmhearted nature of a plush teddy bear. Cuddly and sweet, his favorite pastimes involve lounging on a couch next to his foster mom and welcoming pets from anyone who walks by. Teddy is sociable, enjoying the company of both people and his little dog brother, but a home with older kids would be best, given his playful, exuberant nature. Teddy is quite the jumper, leaping over furniture with enthusiasm rather than finesse, which adds a unique charm to his personality. He enjoys time outdoors, running around and barking at passing cars, showcasing his canine spirit. While he hasn't yet met any cats, he does have a tendency for spirited chases, making feline roommates a potential challenge. Though still learning the ropes of obedience, Teddy is housebroken and has shown good manners in his foster home. He can thrive with other dogs or as a solo pet, provided he has plenty of companionship. Teddy’s ideal scenario includes some long walks, a yard to romp in, and most importantly, a spot beside you on the couch after all the fun. If Teddy sounds like a good fit for your home, think about applying today!
