2146 Teddy's Story

ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS<br/><br/>HE WOULD LIKE A PERSON WHO IS HOME A LOT. A FENCED YARD WOULD BE GREAT BUT NOT NESSARILY REQUIRED AS LONG AS HE IS LEASH WALKED.<br/><br/>Meet Mr. Teddy <br/><br/>Mr. Teddy is a special, quirky little 10 year old guy with a whole lot of personality packed into a precious package. He may be yorkie/chihuahua/papillon mixed with bridge troll. He’s 13 pounds but don’t tell him he should probably be around 10 pounds.<br/>He came into rescue when it was clear his previous person could no longer properly care for him. Since then, he’s shown that he gets along well with other dogs, cats, and kids—though he does have a few… unique traits (see below!).<br/>Mr. Teddy walks nicely on a leash and would do just fine in a home without a fenced yard, as long as his person is committed to regular leash walks and supervised potty breaks—no free roaming for this little guy.<br/>Now, about those quirks…<br/>At some point, Mr. Teddy seems to have been taught a “protect the human” game—and he takes his job very seriously. If he’s resting with his person and someone tries to approach or touch them, he may go into full-on tiny guardian mode. Don’t worry—there are no bites, just lots of dramatic “junkyard dog” sound effects and toothy theatrics. The funny part? As soon as it’s over, he’ll happily wag his tail and ask for scratches like nothing ever happened.<br/>Mornings are another adventure. Mr. Teddy has perfected the art of the grumpy wake-up face, and he firmly believes belly rubs are a requirement before starting the day. Skip that step, and you may meet the tiny dog demon again!<br/>Because of his occasional unpredictability when he feels the need to “protect,” a home with children would require attentive supervision.<br/><br/>If you’re ready to add a hilarious, loving, and one-of-a-kind companion to your life, Mr. Teddy might just be your perfect match! Please fill out the application below (copy and paste to your browser) and we will get back with you as soon as we can.<br/><br/>https://form.jotform.com/211044942326146<br/><br/>Adoption fee pays for all vetting...neuter surgery, all vaccinations, a heart worm test, deworming, flea prevention and a microchip.
