My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Teddy, a curious and gentle young boy who is looking for his forever home. With a heart as big as his brain, Teddy loves to explore and learn about the world around him. He is always up for an adventure and loves neighborhood walks and hanging out in the backyard.

Teddy is a "shepski" (Shepherd - Husky mix), and on the small side for his breed at 43 lbs.

Teddy has a shy but gentle nature, and he loves nothing more than to play with other dogs and maybe even take a dip in the pool. He would do well with most any dog, but would thrive with another dog whose behavior he could model. Teddy is ready to find his forever family and fill their lives with love and joy. Could you be the one to give Teddy the loving home he deserves?

Teddy is currently in foster in the San Fernando Valley. If you'd like to come meet Teddy, let us know!

Most of our fosters and adopters see our dogs on social media or on our website, but we also network the dogs via other platforms and attend adoption events.

If you live in the L.A. area we are happy to bring the dog to you or, if it is in training, visit our trainer to get to know the dog. We want to make the adoption process seamless and informative!

More about this rescue

Outta the Cage began when a group of technology professionals began volunteering at high-kill shelters. This grass roots effort – and the resulting data – taught us a lot about successful tactics for getting shelter animals adopted. Our mission at Outta the Cage is to get shelter animals seen as individuals in order to find them forever homes.

We go to shelters to video animals (mainly dogs), getting them “outta the cage” and into open areas and play yards. We share the resulting videos on social media and enlist the community to help spread the word. Because we’re data geeks, we also provide networking best practices, offering field-proven tips for optimal advocacy, networking, animal profiling, and post-adopting integration.

Outta the Cage rescues senior, medical, large breed, and long-term stay dogs from high-kill southern California shelters.

These dogs are often overlooked by potential adopters but, through targeted networking, video sharing, and subsidized adoption fees, we can help them become wonderful forever family members!
