This handsome boy is ready to trade in the hustle and bustle for the good life: a cozy bed, park strolls and a family to call his own. Teddy is a true gentleman with an easygoing personality and plenty of love to give (he's happiest spending time with his people). Teddy is also looking for a family that's excited to help him feel his very best. He's currently carrying a few extra pounds, so he'll benefit from regular walks and a healthy routine to help him reach a more comfortable weight. Think of him as a walking buddy who's just as invested in the journey as you are!
If you're searching for a loyal dog who's left his puppy antics behind but still has plenty of love and happy adventures ahead of him, Teddy is ready to settle into retirement in style. All he needs is a loving home where he can spend his golden years being cherished, because every distinguished gentleman deserves a happily ever after!
