Are you right for Teddy?
Teddy is a super sweet 3 year old Cavachon. He does take a little while to warm up to new people initially, but once he knows you, he is the cuddliest boy, it just takes some time to build up his confidence. He can live with secondary school children, but they need to have previous dog experience because he can be sensitive, so understanding children in the home are essential. Teddy does need to be the only dog in the home, because he shown some jealousey when around other dogs in a home and resource guarded from them in the past. He is happy to go out and about with dogs and have doggy friends, but he doesn't want them in his home. Teddy isn’t a fan of being left alone for long hours, so he needs people who ideally work from home or are at home most of the time. Teddy used to be a little shy with handling around his head, but he is a lot better now. Still best to go slow with him just in case. But he has definitely gained more confidence. Teddy can be worried by loud noises so a quieter home would suit him best. Teddy is a very cuddly boy when he knows you, he loves to snuggle with you on the sofa and have all the attention. This generally happens once he has gotten to know you and settled in the home, like he did in foster, where he is super happy and confident, so his new family will need to be patient and give him time to get comfortable and settle.
Is Teddy right for you?
Teddy absolutely loves his walks, and he does get very excited when he knows he’s going out, so a home that is up for taking him on adventures is needed. One of Teddy’s favourite things to do is to chase butterflies and anything that flies, so just keep this in mind if he will be having off lead time in the future. He is fully house trained, he has had no accidents since being in foster and asks when he needs to go out, and he travels well in the car. Teddy would suit a home where someone is around most of the time, isn’t too loud or busy and just want a dog that they can take out and about on lots of walks and have loads of cuddles with. Children in the home will need to be secondary age and upwards. He’s such a lovely boy, just needs to find his perfect home.

Some of the dogs in our care will need to meet potential owners several times to get to know one another. This lets us see you’re compatible and gives you the chance to build a bond before making a commitment to give them a new home. By taking some time at the beginning to make sure everyone’s comfortable, an adoption is more likely to be successful.
We may also arrange a home visit with you, to see how your house will be set up and check that the garden (if you have one) is secure. This may not be necessary, though, especially if you’ve adopted from us before. Where you already have dogs, we may accept a reference from your vet as an alternative.

If we haven’t found the right dog for you within three months, we’ll let you know your application is closed. We’ll invite you to apply again so we have up-to-date information about you, and we’ll keep looking.
