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. Whatever it is, this little guy has a way of melting hearts. Teddy has a gentle soul; he's sweet, calm, and affectionate, perfectly content soaking up cuddles before happily wandering off to play. While his siblings may be showing off bigger personalities, Teddy is quietly stealing hearts just by being himself. He's the puppy you find yourself checking on because he's so precious.
Teddy is approximately 2 months old and weighs around 10 lbs. We believe he may be a German Shepherd/Great Pyrenees mix, but with rescue, it's always a mystery! He's currently thriving in a foster home, exploring the world through play, naps, and gentle socialization. His days are filled with chasing toys, wrestling with siblings, eating, and napping – a pretty great life! Teddy is exactly what his name suggests: gentle, sweet, affectionate, and easy to love. He enjoys playing with toys and joining in on puppy fun but has a naturally calmer personality that's already shining through. He's the puppy who reminds you to slow down and enjoy the little moments of puppyhood. Being the smallest has its perks, and everyone babies Teddy a little – it's hard not to with that innocent face and gentle personality. If quiet snuggles are as important to you as playtime, Teddy will fit into your heart easily. Watching Teddy discover new things and grow into the dog he's meant to be will be a rewarding adventure for his future family.
Ideal Home

We require adopters to begin crate training right away to help with potty training, learning healthy routines, building confidence, and creating a safe space.
Ongoing Health
Teddy is up-to-date on all vetting, which includes DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, flea prevention, and a 12-month heartworm preventative injectable. He has also had a heartworm test.
