About Teddy Bear Built for Snuggles

There's just something about Teddy Bear. Maybe it's because he's the tiniest of his litter, or perhaps it's his sweet little face and innocent puppy eyes as he navigates this big world. Whatever it is, this little guy has a way of making everyone who meets him want to scoop him up, shower him with kisses, and protect him forever. Teddy has a gentle soul that's impossible not to fall in love with. He's sweet, calm, affectionate, and perfectly content soaking up cuddles before happily wandering off to play with a toy. While his siblings might be showing off bigger personalities, Teddy quietly steals hearts by just being himself. There's a peacefulness about him that makes you want to check on him just because he's so precious. Watch his video and prepare to fall in love: https://youtu.be/JF2tI03AUOM?si=cf2FJDQWwALwDMyt

Teddy is approximately 2 months old and currently weighs around 10 lbs. We believe he may be a German Shepherd/Great Pyrenees mix, but with rescue, it's always a mystery, and we can never guarantee breed. He's currently thriving in a foster home, exploring the world through play, naps, mealtime routines, and gentle socialization. His life is wonderfully simple: chase a toy, wrestle with siblings, eat, nap, and repeat. He's exactly what his name implies – gentle, sweet, affectionate, and an easy little guy to love. He enjoys playing with toys and joining in puppy fun, but his naturally calmer personality is already shining through, reminding you to slow down and enjoy the special moments of puppyhood. As the smallest of the litter, everyone babies Teddy a little, and it's easy to see why with his innocent face and gentle personality. If quiet snuggles are as important to you as playtime, Teddy will fit into your heart easily. Raising a puppy like Teddy, who's loved from the start, is a rewarding adventure filled with discovering new things and celebrating little victories.
