About Teddy
Meet Teddy, a delightful, affectionate and well-behaved Shih Tzu pup who's destined to bring endless joy to his future family.
Born on 8 August 2024, Teddy is a gentle snuggle bug, who loves playtime and toys.
He has a perky, happy temperament that makes him incredibly easy to love. He gets on well with other dogs and people of all ages.
Teddy is a charming companion who thrives in the company of others. Whether it's curling up on your lap or accompanying you on an afternoon stroll, he's happiest when surrounded by people.
Gentle and house-trained, he's a delight to have around. Although Teddy doesn't require extensive exercise, he will enjoy a good walk, but keep in mind that Shih Tzus are better off inside at home when the weather is hot.
Grooming plays a significant role in Teddy's care, and while he currently sports a brand new, short body clip, maintaining his naturally long, flowing coat is an option for those who enjoy daily grooming sessions. Check out the video to see how well-behaved he was when he was groomed recently.
If you're looking for a loyal and devoted companion, Teddy may be the perfect fit for you.
He's not suited to solitary life in the backyard and will thrive in a home where he has abundant company, love and affection.
As always, secure fencing is essential.
Teddy is available for interstate adoption, provided he does not travel in the cargo hold of a plane.
