ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:

Teddy is a fun loving 4 1/2 yr old, 70 lb Mountain Cur/Lab mix. He is a smart, affectionate and playful boy. Teddy is looking for home where his human pals will be adults or teenagers. Teddy will love a home where he can play outside and go on adventures!! He LOVES swiming so someone with a pool or who likes water sports would be a great companion for him.

He likes to have a task to do and he's a superb running partner. Ball is his favorite game, and he's done classes for obedience training. Teddy is a smart boy.

Teddy will thrive as the only dog in his home. However, if you have other family member dogs in your life that are his size and larger, they can certainly be slowly introduced and become best friends in no time. We can happily give advice to a successful introduction to lead to success!
