About Teddy

Meet Teddy, a delightful 12-year-old West Highland White Terrier with a heart full of love. Weighing in at just 11.6 pounds, he has the softest coat and a sweet demeanor that makes him an instant favorite. Teddy recently underwent dental surgery, during which he had 21 teeth extracted, and had some pesky foxtails removed from his ear and mouth. He has made a remarkable recovery and is thriving! This little gentleman adores cuddling with his human companions and has a gentle nature that makes him very sociable with dogs of all sizes. He's house-trained and crate-trained, although he prefers to be with his people most of the time. Teddy enjoys leisurely outings in a securely fenced yard, making it essential for his new home to have a safe outdoor space. While he may be a mature dog, Teddy's spirit remains vibrant, and he’s ready to share his love in a calm environment, ideally one without young children or too much commotion. If you feel that Teddy would fit perfectly into your family, don’t hesitate to fill out an application for a meet and greet.
