About Teddy Bear

Poodle / Sealyham Terrier
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male

Teddy Bear is the brown curly haired dog in the photo. He is part of a bonded pair of two small, neglected, at-risk dogs, who live in the front yard of a family residing in the Echo Park neighborhood of downtown, Los Angeles. Also pictured is Teddy's best friend and constant companion, Coconut. She is the little straight haired white dog in the photo, and she and Teddy do everything together. Teddy is an un-neutered, 5 year-old, half poodle/half terrier mix, and Coconut is an 8 year-old half Shiba Inu/half terrier, spayed female. Teddy's and Coconut's family have decided that they are no longer able to care for these two amazing dogs, and have asked me to help find them a loving new forever home. Teddy is about 5 years old, and he is incredibly shy. People have been cruel to him at times, so he is very cautious around new people. But, once you befriend him (which is easy to do with a little food and kindness), he is the sweetest little boy in the world. He is part poodle, so he doesn't shed. He needs haircuts, and he has recently had his coat sheared shorter for summer. He looks like a neglected teddy bear that a child loved and then forgot by the side of the road. Teddy and Coconut live a very tough life. Their current family severely neglects them. Their family doesn't allow them to come indoors, so they are always outside in the intense heat of the Los Angeles days, and cold of the nights, even though they would like nothing more than to be allowed to live indoors with a loving family. Teddy and Coco can often be seen wandering in the streets, dodging traffic, sorting through garbage, looking for bits of food to nibble on. They do not get regular baths or grooming, and that is why you can see from the photo, they are quite dirty. But Teddy and Coco are beautiful dogs, and they would clean up so well, if only we could find them a loving new guardian or family to take them in and give them some TLC. Both Teddy and Coconut are very sweet doggies. They show no aggression, or hostility, despite the fact that they have been picked on and bullied by many mean residents of their neighborhood. They are gentle, polite, affectionate, and have amazing little personalities that will make your heart swell with compassion. All they want is a chance to live a normal, happy lives, as someone's beloved fur babies. I strongly feel that these two dogs need to be placed together in one great new adoptive home, because they have always been each other's rock. They have only survived their very difficult circumstances because they've had one another's companionship and help to rely upon, so I want to find them a home that is willing to take in both dogs, so these two can stay together forever. My name is Anastasia Bright. Please call me at (323) 422-7267 if you are interested in learning more about Teddy Bear, and Coconut. They really need your help. Please tell your friends and family about their story, so we can find these two deserving, lovely dogs a wonderful home ASAP. Thanks so much.
