This incredibly handsome man with the beautiful blond coat is Teddy, a pit bull that is around 3 to 4 years old. Teddy first came in to our Newark facility as a stray. A good hearted volunteer fostered Teddy and then found him a home, but after a year, his new family had to give him up due to a lack of time for him. Teddy is understandably upset to be back in a shelter, but his smile never fades and his tail never stops wagging. Even after moving around so many times, Teddy never lets anything get him down and is always so happy, outgoing, friendly and fun-loving. Teddy absolutely adores people, so much so that he gives kisses on command! He will also sit nicely and stay down when asked. Teddy gets along well with some dogs, so if you're interested in him, please bring yours in to meet him. He has lots of energy so he would love a nice yard to run and play in. Teddy would do well with people of all ages, and in any loving home with a family that will promise to love and care for him forever! 2/5/13 File#22261
