TEDDY
Maltese / Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie / Mixed (medium coat) · Adult (3 years 9 months) · Male · Small · Westmont, IL
Notes from A Caring Place - All Breed Dog Rescue
Petite pup seeking a chest to lay on or the back of your recliner to share with you. Introducing Teddy, a 3-4 year old, 6 pound, Morkie (Maltese/Yorkshire Terrier cross) who has a silky-soft cream colored non-shedding coat. Teddy is a nice balance of being independent and being snuggly - he is playful and loving to his people.
One of Teddy’s favorite places to lay is on the back of his foster mom’s recliner chair. He lives happily and harmoniously in a foster home with several other small dogs; from time to time he can be a little bossy with them but is easily corrected. Teddy enjoys playing tug with toys as well as playing chase with the other dogs in the yard. He will “over-see” the other dogs’ activities throughout the day, have a good cuddle with his foster mom, and take a nap sleeping under his blanket.
Teddy has some emotional scars from the life he lived prior to rescue causing him to not initially trust people he doesn’t know, so he will a couple weeks to settle-in with his new owner to feel safe and secure. He deserves a wonderful new life; can you help his dream come true?
ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS: Adult only household, and securely fenced yard.
This dog has been examined by licensed veterinarians, provided inoculations, dewormed, groomed, tested for diseases, neutered, and microchipped. ADOPTION APPLICATIONS should be requested from acaringplace@comcast.net
