History: Theodore needed a second chance at a good life and arrived to rescue with the help of Lightshine Rescue whose efforts are focused on a rural reservation in South Dakota where resources are low.
A Note from the Foster: Meet Theodore — The Little Expressive Little Explorer!
Theodore is a 9‑week‑old, 7‑pound bundle of curiosity who came to us from a South Dakota reservation, and he has quickly proven himself to be quite an entertaining puppy. With his incredibly expressive eyes, soft coat, and “I‑have‑opinions” personality, he keeps us smiling.
This little guy is a champion chewer; hands, ankles, other pets, even your laptop as you type — he believes everything deserves a taste test. Luckily, he’s also smart, redirectable, and eager to learn what’s actually meant for chewing.
Theodore plays wonderfully with our 10‑pound shih‑tzu, and while he’s full of puppy enthusiasm, he mostly listens when she tells him she’s had enough. Potty training is going well; he’s going outside multiple times during the day and typically needs two potty breaks at night, which is pretty great for a pup his age. He is learning to head to the door to tell us he needs out.
If you’re looking for a fun, lively, affectionate yet independent pup who will keep you smiling and your heart full, Theodore is ready to meet you.
