About Teddy

Teddy is an adorable three-year-old neutered male Yorkshire Terrier who was found abandoned. Despite his rough start, he's a friendly and gentle little guy, and he's looking for a loving home. Teddy enjoys the company of females and is generally okay with other dogs, though he tends to be a bit dominant, so it's best he doesn't share his space with other males. He's great with cats and loves children, making him a perfect family companion. While he is mostly housetrained, Teddy sometimes marks indoors when settling into a new home. Luckily, belly bands can accompany him to help with that. He’s crate trained and adores snuggling up on the couch. His lovely long coat is another charming feature. Teddy is currently in Chelsea, VT and is ready to meet his forever family. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
