Hi, I’m Teddy (Theodore when I am naughty, which never ever happens!). I am 100% velociraptor and 100% adorable! My foster family has 3 other dogs that keep me pretty busy and out of trouble! I follow my foster sister everywhere! She is teaching me all the GSP tricks; how to play with toys together, the best places to take naps, some manners, and she is even helping potty train me!

I love squeaky toys and even “sing” along with the squeaks! I also love chasing after balls and other toys. I’m not ready to start catching toys yet, but I bet I will be the best toy catcher in all the land when I get a little bigger!

My foster family is working with me on jumping up on them and counter surfing when I get excited. I love the human kids in the house; I can’t get enough of their snuggles and play time!

I am learning how to walk on a leash, I know once I get the hang of it, I will want to go on lots of walks together! My foster family also has a doggie door that I am comfortable using. I like to be outside with my foster siblings!

I am starting to learn some basic commands like off and sit. But I need a lot of practice. Thank goodness I love treats, so it won’t take me too long to get the hang of the basics. I tend to eat super-fast; my foster family recommends a slow feeder bowl or puzzle of some sort to help teach me to slow down.

I am pretty darn close to being fully potty trained. No really! It’s true! My foster family makes sure I go right out after each nap and several times throughout the day. I have even started whining at the back door when I really really need to go! I wake up once during the night for a potty break, but that’s only when my foster siblings get up to go potty, I would rather sleep through the night, but I also can’t miss out on whatever their middle of the night fun is!

Teddy’s ideal home is an active household with another energetic dog (or two) to play with.

 

If you are interested in giving me or one of my siblings a home, please read on for a few details:

  • My adoption fee is $425.00
  • I am a purebred German Shorthaired Pointer who was surrendered by a breeder.
  • I will require a family who can provide training and attend classes if necessary. I will have accidents, may cry in a crate, will chew on things that aren't mine, and will need lots of exercise, as all shorthairs do!
  • I will have all appropriate vaccinations, be de-wormed, and microchipped. 
  • My adoption agreement will require I be neutered when I am six months old. Once paperwork is provided to GPPR confirming this, $40 of my adoption fee will be reimbursed. 
  • My new family may need to travel to my foster home to pick me up. GPPR does not ship dogs.
