About Teddy

Meet Teddy! This sweet 8-month-old mixed breed pup, likely a Labrador Retriever, is looking for a special home. He has a gentle heart and curious spirit, with ears that bend down and a playful front leg posture when he's in exploration mode. Teddy has faced some challenges early in life, which makes him a bit shy when forming new relationships. However, with patience and love, he will thrive. He's fully house-trained, loves to cuddle on his mat or in his crate, and barks occasionally—mostly when bears wander through the yard. Teddy may benefit from having an older dog around to help him build confidence. He’s truly a devoted companion in the making, ready for someone who understands that earning trust takes time. If you’re looking for a furry friend to bond with, Teddy might just be your perfect match. Teddy is in Candler, NC, and for more information, you can reach out directly to Casey at 864.498.3961 or Casey.fbc@gmail.com. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
