My story

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

✨ Meet Teddy — Your Adventure Buddy in the Making! ✨ Teddy is an almost 3-year-old, 70lb German Shepherd mix with a heart full of energy and love. This handsome boy is up to date on all his shots, incredibly smart, and always ready to learn something new. Teddy LOVES people — especially anyone willing to throw a tennis ball or hit some wiffle balls for him! He’s energetic, playful, and happiest when he’s out for a good run or a long, exploring walk. If you’re looking for a dog who will keep you active and make every day feel like an adventure, Teddy is your guy. He also loves attention, thrives on engagement, and would do best in a home that can give him plenty of exercise, structure, and affection. Teddy’s Ideal Home: Needs to be the only dog in the home Has not been exposed to kids, so an adult-only household is ideal Unknown with cats Experienced owners preferred Someone committed to continuing training — he’s smart and eager to learn Teddy is ready to bond deeply with someone who understands him and can offer the time, patience, and active lifestyle he craves. If you think you might be the perfect match for Teddy or want to learn more about him, please reach out to collis 619 990 3502 collis32@yahoo.comNovember 17, 2025, 8:41 pm

Additional adoption info

If we are adopting out a dog who has been trained the adopter must agree to one training session the day they adopt the dog (coming home). If we decide additional training sessions will be needed we will advise the adopter prior to adoption.

More about this rescue

We are a veteran-run dog rescue based in San Diego, California. Our goal is to change the rescue world. We adopt our dogs to any loving and qualified homes, but we also provide ESAs for military veterans. With The Heroic Tail’s model, we are not only able to rescue dogs from high-kill shelters who happen to be at the wrong place at the wrong time, but we are also able to help the dogs deemed “unadoptable” and give them a better chance at a happy and healthy life!
