About Bill

Bill & Ted were on a little bit of a bogus journey, stuck wandering aimlessly around the rural areas of town, hungry and no warm beds to call their own... They're going to have to face the music and try to put their best foot forward in finding a new forever home. These guys are ready to find a loving family who will keep them warm, safe, fed, and hopefully go on some excellent adventures!!

Bill seems to be the more cautious of the two, he's very willing to make human connections but does come off more shy and avoidant. He likes to stay in the background of Ted's antics and because of that is very easy to overlook. Bill loves to cuddle up on couches with people, he likes to tuck himself into his favorite people's sides and never have to get up for anything. Both these boys have some serious separation anxiety from people, they do not like being left alone and will become vocal in desperation for attention. Bill hasn't been tried with dogs other than his brother but we do think he has potential to get along with others.

Ideal Home

Bill & Ted ideally would go to a home together, but this is a lot to ask of potential adopters and can have later repercussions as they are possible littermates. As they have been together for awhile they are attached, but that can sometimes be toxic. Ted is possessive of food and does seem to boss Bill around sometimes. So they can be adopted to the same household with the understanding they NEED training and will have to be worked with to deal with/overcome their co-dependency. We are also letting them get adopted individually so we don't needlessly deny even just one of them a home.

Ongoing Health

All animals adopted out of CGHS are spayed/neutered, up to date on annual vaccines including rabies, and microchipped.

Training & Support

Bill and Ted have separation anxiety and do not like being left alone; they will become vocal. They will need training to deal with and overcome their co-dependency, especially regarding food possessiveness and Ted bossing Bill around.
