Arrival Story: Although Teddy is young, he has been abandoned 3 times. The first family couldn't keep him anymore because they are moving to an apartment that doesn't allow dogs. The second family abandoned him together with 4 other dogs & numerious cats and flew to CA. Teddy was left with our neighbor who lives downstairs. We talked to our neighbor and heard that all 5 dogs will be put to sleep within a few days because she cannot keep them and no shelters would accept them . We asked for a few extra days of time so that we can call around to look for a place for the 3 younger and healthy dogs. The very next day (within 18 hours we talked to our neighbor), our neighbor told us that the dogs would be put down on that day and so we decided to foster the youngest dog, Teddy, until we can find a loving home for him.

UPDATE
Teddy is now in a new loving home with his new Golden Retriever older brother Jake.
The Adventures they are having together!! Stay tuned!!!
******* From Jake's/Teddy's home -----
Stay tuned indeed!
The diary will give you all the news you guys need!
k - so as you guessed, I saw him on Dogster, he was Dog Of The Week and he was looking for a new home. I saw a pic of him with reindeer antlers on his head and I was in love!
Bio: Teddy is a German Shepherd Mix. He's 55 lbs and he has a sweet puppy face. He is a quiet and calm dog and is VERY friendly. He is a good watch dog BUT he would stop barking when you tell him to. He doesn't hate Baths. You will be amazed at how sweet this dog is despite he was abandoned and abandoned and abandoned.
What a dear, sweet boy...not a jealous, or mean, bone in his body! We are so lucky!
We love Teddy!
Forums Motto:
It has been 3 years now since we brought you into our home. And I just want you to know how much we all love you.
Every day I smile when I see your face. Each morning, you wake me up when the alarm goes off with a face licking and a great big smile, always ready to start the new day! (We call you a "Morning dog") :)
I often wonder what life was like before we knew you. I cannot remember what we used to do before you came to our family and we became a "2 dog family". Teddy you have brought us so much joy and fun and we are so glad that we found you on Dogster. And so glad that we responded to your need and brought you home. You may think that you were very lucky that we found you, because you had been through 4 homes in 7 months and could not find a good home....but WE were the lucky ones. Because Sweet Teddy, you have made our family complete. And we love you and we always will.
Tomorrow is my 3 year anniversary in my furever home!!!
YAY me!!
It was 3 years ago in October that I was featured on Dogster as Dog of the Week and it was there that myMommy first saw my picture and showed me to Daddy! On November 4th 2006, I WAS ADOPTED AND AM STILL HERE!!!! I am a stray no more.
My story is truly a Dogster success story!
I want to share with my Dogster pals my last post made by my foster mother on the day I left her home to come and live with Jake. When I read this now it seems like a million years ago.
I want to thank My foster parents (Mini's Mom) for saving me from that terrible place and for doing a Dogster page for me. And I want to thank Dogster too, for making me Dog of the Week so that my mom could find me and save me from doggy hell forever!!!!
Anyway here is my post...November 4th 2006:
Dear Diary,
Today will be my very last day that I see my foster parents because I'm going to my New Home Today!!!!. In an hour, my foster parents & I will leave home and drive to meet Jake's parents!!!!
Jake's Mom is such a great person! She said that Jake is not going to meeting spot today because he doesn't travel well and will be very hyper to see me (she said that Jake may scare me but I don't think so). She said that it doesn't matter if we won't be able to know if Jake & I will get along at first because she already feels committed to me and will not leave without me. I'm SUPER LUCKY that this family found me on dogster!!!!
As for my foster parents and Mini:
I will not forget them. Thank you for having me in your house! If it's not because of you, I wont be able to find Jake & his family. I will miss you......
Alrighty, I gotta go now diary! I gotta get ready to see my soon-to-be family.
I am scared of the spooky Hallowe'en decorations that are on our neighbours lawn.
There is a ghost and some sort of bug thing that is lying on its back, and it MOVES!!!!
I am afraid of that house and refuse to pass by it. Mommy tries to get me to pass by the house on our walks but I make her cross the street so i don't have to see it.
