About Teddy (Teddy Bear)
Meet Teddy, affectionately known as Teddy Bear, a nearly 14-year-young Schnoodle with a heart full of love and a spirit that remains as invigorating as ever. This loving and affectionate soul is seeking a serene sanctuary to call home, a place where he can enjoy the warmth and comfort of human companionship. Teddy simply adores being around people, delighting most in sitting on laps and receiving endless cuddles.
Despite the recent loss of his cherished human, Teddy remains hopeful for a new beginning. He's quite agreeable with other dogs and cats, keeping to himself as long as he can steal the spotlight with some affectionate attention. He gets along best in calmer environments, as overly energetic pets might not suit his gentle pace. Due to his age, Teddy prefers soft foods, but his appetite for love and cuddles has never waned.
Teddy seeks a quiet and peaceful home where someone is often present, catering to his slight separation anxiety. In return, he offers unfailing loyalty and love, nurturing a lap-warming companionship that fills any space with warmth. If you can provide Teddy with the laps and love he craves, you'll gain a devoted companion ready to share his golden years with affection and gentle charm. Adopting Teddy means inviting boundless love into your home and embracing the joy that a gentle friend like him can bring.

Adoption details
PFPRI Adoption Process
Please read our adoption process carefully before submitting an enquiry.
1. Pre-Adoption Screening
All applicants are required to complete our pre-adoption screening questionnaire when submitting an enquiry. This helps us understand your household, lifestyle and suitability for the animal you are interested in adopting.
2. Meet & Greet
After reviewing the responses, the most suitable candidates will be contacted to arrange a meet & greet with the animal.
3. Adoption Application
Following a successful meet & greet, shortlisted applicants will be invited to complete our formal application to adopt.
4. Adoption Approval & Payment
Once the adoption application has been approved, the full adoption fee must be paid within 24 hours to secure the adoption.
5. Adoption & Pick-Up
Pick-up of the adopted animal can be arranged once the adoption fee has been received and the adoption has been confirmed.
6. 14-Day Trial Period
We offer a 14-day trial period to help ensure the adoption is the right fit for both the animal and the family.
If the adoption proves unsuitable during the trial period, the animal may be returned to PFPRI and the adoption fee will be fully refunded, provided the animal is returned in healthy condition.
Our priority is always to ensure that every rescued animal is placed into a safe, loving and suitable forever home.
