Teddy

Meet Teddy!

A spirited two-and-a-half-year-old Miniature Poodle/Australian Shepherd mix currently in Santa Clarita, CA, whose essence is a swirl of playfulness, athletic charm, and heart-melting goofiness wrapped in a mostly white, medium-sized frame.

Teddy is the kind of companion who makes every day feel like a new adventure! Whether he's trotting beside you on a hike, sprinting through the park, or proudly showing off his favorite stuffed animal, this boy brings a joyful energy to everything he does. He's smart, sensitive, and absolutely thrives in a life filled with routine, structure, and (most importantly) connection.

Thanks to time spent training at Good Shepherd Academy on Cesar Millan's Dog Psychology Center ranch, Teddy has blossomed into a well-balanced, social pup! He's learned the beauty of calm leadership, the comfort of clear expectations, and the joy of pack walks with fellow canines. His training, fully paid for by his loving guardians, will continue as part of his transition to a new home, with prospective pet parents invited to participate in a few structured Saturday morning pack walks. It's a truly special opportunity to get to know Teddy in the environment where he feels most confident and at ease.

Teddy would be a great match for an experienced adult guardian who leads an active, outdoor lifestyle and values the importance of calm confidence. He's friendly with other dogs, gets along with cats, and would do well in a home with another easy-going pup, though he's also content as your one-and-only. He's crate trained, house trained, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and neutered. While children aren't a good fit due to his sensitivity to over-excitement, adults who speak the language of consistency and care will find a deeply loyal, affectionate companion in Teddy.

Do you love long walks, spontaneous hikes, and the joy of a dog who's as goofy as he is smart? Are you ready to build a trusting bond through structure, activity, and shared experiences? Teddy's wagging tail is already imagining the adventures you'll have together!
