HOW TO MEET THIS ANIMAL: Teddy is staying with a foster in Maryland!

LOCATION: Adoption Center

ADOPTION COORDINATOR: Mary Beth M

ADOPTION FEE: $475. This fee INCLUDES spay/neuter and microchip. **Ask me about our many adoption benefits that include free exams, pet insurance, training and other discounts!

ESTIMATE WEIGHT FULL GROWN: 4 lbs

KNOWN WITH DOGS: Teddy is good with other dogs. But does not like if he is bothered by them for play or interaction. He'd do well with a companion that is super chill and just likes having a dog around but not so much interaction until they are VERY familiar with eachother.

KNOWN WITH CATS: Teddy has not met a cat so we do not know.

KNOWN WITH KIDS: Teddy is nervous around children. (well, people in general) He can be a little nippy with new people!!

KNOWN COMMANDS: Still gathering information on this! Stay tuned!

KNOWN HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING: Teddy can go about 4 hours before he needs to be let out to go to the bathroom! Its the curse of having such a small bladder!!

KNOWN LIKES: He likes hanging with people and dogs he knows and trusts!! Being a part of a pack seems to suit Teddy.

KNOWN DISLIKES: He really does not like new people or new situations! He will bark and get a little nippy with new people if they interact with him too much, but is totally fine if you ignore him and just let him get used to him. He's Great once he gets to know you!!!

ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:

Teddy is looking for a home with a single person or couple that is ok with his quirks! He LOVES people once he gets to know them, and same with dogs! He will ride along with you, but bark at people passing by. The world is a scary place, and he needs a confident owner who is totally chill and nonchalant when Teddy thinks the world is ending! He loves to hang on your lap, and would be just fine with another canine companion big or small.
