At the shelter, Teddy is described as, 'Solicited attentions, Easy to pull from kennel, Easy to return to kennel, Takes treats nicely, Easy/Loose Leash, Calm, Ignored dogs when walking past kennels, In yard came right over to me, put paws on my lap. Allowed me to pet him which eventually became hugging him. LOVED it & kept returning for more. He is friendly, loving, calm, quiet, cooperative, gentle, respectful, and a kisser. love him! Soft body at front of kennel, slightly head shy of leash but quickly warmed to handler and allowed it. Walked with light pull. Affiliative and attention seeking in yard. Allowed all petting; put front feet in handler's lap for attention. Interacted well and calmly with kennelmate. No issues on return. Removed leash by hand.'
