Biography
Teddy is a very sweet and affectionate male cockapoo. He considers himself the alpha of our other two dogs. We love him dearly but since having a baby this past January, he has become very territorial and will stand between the baby and my husband as well as older child and not allow anyone close to me or baby. He will chase the Amazon delivery man up the driveway and away from our house. He has also become aggressive towards the other smaller dogs. Teddy does great at my parents’ farm property where he can run a lot and is around horses without any issue so I would assume larger livestock would also be ok. Teddy will want to dominate other smaller animals but does well around larger dogs where he knows he is not the alpha pup. I also would recommend no small children. Older children and adults who want to give him lots of love and attention would be a great spot for Teddy. He thrives with lots of activity and attention. Unfortunately, I am just not able to give him the care he needs right now and we likely plan on having another baby so I feel it would be in Teddy’s best interest to have a home better suited for his needs.
I should also add that we did have him professionally trained as a puppy and so he does walk very well on a leash with his harness. He loves to go on multi-mile hikes or just for a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood.
