Teddy - On Trial

This little fluffer is teddy j and he is just the sweetest boy! breed – pomeranian x lion?

this little guy is one we saved from the wodonga pound. Normally the pound is a pretty traumatic time for dogs, but this little guy has come out and doesn’t seems to have been affected much at all! his bouncy and happy go lucky nature has made it very easy for him to adapt to foster care. Little teddy was surrendered to the wodonga pound by a lovely family who really did love and care for him but their situation changed and they moved from a farm with loads of room to run and play, to a house in town with no fences. They really wanted to be able to keep him and tried to have him go to other members of the family so they could still see him however the circumstances of other family members made it difficult for them to accommodate him, sadly. On a brighter note, teddy loves to play! he chases other dogs and if he can’t catch up because of his little legs he will grab hold of their ankles haha and when they turn around to start playing all they get is a mouth full of fur! he squeals with excitement when i get home from work, i have never seen a dog so happy to see me in all of my life, not even my own dog! ted has recently taken a liking to a particular toy which all the dogs play with as well as a tennis ball, which is the funniest sight in the world. Teddy is smaller than he looks and the tennis ball is almost the size of his head, so you can imagine it in his mouth. Teddy loves to be inside with you whenever you are home. He does spend his days outside with the other dogs while i’m at work but he is right in his element when he can come inside with me and perch himself up on a pillow on the couch and watch the others run around, giving them an occasional bark. One thing that he does really love is being carried around the house with you. It’s not something i try to encourage but he does love the attention. Teddy walks very well on the lead (when you can find his collar through his fur to put the lead on him) and doesn’t mind walking with a couple of other dogs. The one thing we have really been focusing on is his toilet training. Since he has been desexed he is much better but still has the occasional woopsie inside. This is just a work in progress. Teddy’s coat will need regular brushing and trimming so as to keep him happy and healthy. This little fuzzer is an all rounder and would fit into just about any family. He is a pleasure to foster, you must meet him to really get a kick out of this tiny fellas huge character
