Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi Everybody!
My name is Teddy and I’m a totally darling bichon of about three who is handsome, sweet, smart, playful and loving. (That’s according to my foster Mom because I would never brag!) I’m housebroken, love dogs and cats (that’s not a typo), children and adults – why I love practically everything and everyone (except elephants and maybe giraffes!)
I get along great with other dogs of all sizes and shapes - and love people!
Y ou should see me at the dog park - or anywhere . When I am out in public I love to greet people and make them feel welcome! These people become my friends very quickly—and often ask if they can take a picture with me (‘cause I’m so handsome and attentive. ) So you will probably see my photo on FaceBook a lot these days!
Mom says that I am a great walker (I hold my head and tail high and am very graceful) and a great rider (in the car, that is!) And I am also a great (drum roll please) hugger! I also dance on my hind legs and wave my front paws. That’s called the Bichon Patty cake… and I do it very well.
I’m playful and a very, very good sport. Mom says I love to throw my toys in the air – and play ‘keep away’ with my doggy foster brothers. I also like it when Mom plays throw and fetch with me. (She’s getting pretty good at it, too!) Even though I love my stuffed toys, I’m happy to share them with other dogs. And I do everything I can to get my canine buddies to play with me. If not, I just play independently.
Another thing Mom wants you to know about me is that I’m SMART! I’m housebroken and I know some commands. (I really like the one that starts out ‘Good boy!) And I’m so good that I get to sleep in the Big People’s Bed! You see, I have excellent manners.
My favorite things to do are to play with stuffed toys, other dogs – and you! After playing I like to run to Mom for hugs and pets! I’m very convincing too as she can’t resist me!
My biggest wish is for a home with an active family and maybe another furkid or two. If I could go on lots of rides and walks I would be in heaven.
If I sound like the kind of furkid you are looking for, please complete our application – and ask for me!
Waiting to be your new best friend,
Terrifically Talented Teddy
