Story

Teddie is a 7 year old pitbull mix who is happy to spend his days snuggled on a couch or splayed out on a sunny porch with his people, after an easy walk or two. He is crate trained, knows his basic commands, and will listen well to anyone with a treat bag in hand. He will lick your face off if you let him and loves car rides more than anything. Teddie has anxiety issues that we sadly have not been able to control. He can't make other dog friends and does not respond well to the unpredictability of young children under 12. He is easily handled on walks until another dog comes in site and will need an experienced handler to keep control. He has had both CCL surgeries performed and has seasonal skin allergies that are controlled easily with topical sprays. It breaks my heart to admit Teddie needs a new home. We dream of a home where he is the only dog who can bask on a sunny porch or snuggle up under a sunny window and get as many walks and car rides as possible.
