About Teddy

Teddy is a resilient and determined pup full of personality. Named after Theodore Roosevelt, he’s overcome considerable challenges, including surviving an injury that placed him on the euthanasia list. Now, he thrives on three legs, bringing joy with each wag and playful romp. This affectionate guy loves his walks, although he tires out quickly, and enjoys car rides. He has a penchant for festive moments, especially Christmas lights, and delights in an array of toys and treats. Teddy is also a fan of veggies! A charming little kleptomaniac, he might stow away items in his cozy, blanket-covered crate. Teddy brings a playful spirit, knowing commands like sit, stay, and shake, and he has a special talent for giving enthusiastic French boops, often accompanied by a playful nose or tongue bump! He adores cuddling and will happily seek out a lap to curl up on. While he requires some assistance with stairs or elevated bowls, his charming personality makes it all worthwhile. Recently, he navigated a party with over 30 guests beautifully, although he did snag a child’s cheesecake, showcasing his mischievous side. Teddy is looking for a forever family that understands and appreciates his quirks. If you're patient, ready for lively laughter together, and can lend a helping hand, he promises to love you wholeheartedly. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
