This is a VERY SWEET DOG!! Those senior doggies tug at our heartstrings and are generally so easy to live with. Teddy is no exception. He's approx. 12 yrs. old, weighs 43 lbs., and is a stately gent who needs a loving home to live out his years. He's good with both people and other animals. His breed mix is of course our best guess but he may be a mixture of Sheltie?, Shepherd?, Shiba Inu?
Sweet Teddy would love a quiet mature household where he can be with his family and just take it easy. He's an indoor doggie of course but he would absolutely love to have a fenced yard where he can walk and explore. He's completely non-destructive and has run of the house when his foster parents leave him at home.
HIS STORY:Teddy was a stray who was attacked by dogs, (Teddy, himself, is NOT aggressive to other dogs) so he would very much appreciate a home where the dogs would be nice to him. He was rescued by a kind veterinarian who treated his wounds, ran bloodwork and completed a dental on him, including the extraction of an abscessed tooth. He's heartworm negative, already neutered, UTD on vaccines, dewormed, and treated with heartworm and flea preventatives. Like so many mature dogs, he does have some arthritis that he takes meds and supplements for. He walks with a bit of a limp but still very much enjoys his life.
This wonderful senior boy is hoping to soon find that special family that will rock his world and make it complete.
