Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Teddy! Teddy is an adorable 8-month-old pit mix with a heart full of love and energy. This smart, snuggly pup is looking for a forever home where he can thrive with the right care and companionship. Teddy has a medical history of bladder stones, so he’ll need to stay on a special prescription urinary diet for life and have regular vet checkups to keep him healthy. With proper food and routine care, Teddy is expected to live a long, happy life. He’s bursting with energy and loves fast-paced walks—he’d be a perfect match for someone who enjoys running or an active lifestyle. Teddy adores other dogs, though his enthusiasm can sometimes be a bit much for more laid-back pups. He’s incredibly intelligent and can identify his toys by name, and he’s a big fan of lick mats with peanut butter. Every morning starts with belly rubs and snuggles, and he’d thrive in a home where someone is around during the day to keep him company and help channel his playful spirit. If you’re looking for a loyal, lively, and loving companion, Teddy might just be your perfect match!   Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue microchips all dogs and cats before adoption.
