COURTESY LISTING Teddy is a courtesy listing, not in the AARF foster program, and we are posting online to help the owner find a home for them. Please visit http://aarf-tn.com/adopt/adoption-app/ to apply. Teddy is a two year old chocolate brown Aussie Doodle mix with a sweet disposition, a gorgeous fluffy coat, and a story that will tug at your heartstrings just a little. This 40-pound girl has been a devoted companion to her elderly owner, who loves her deeply but can no longer give her the active life she deserves. Teddy is ready for her next chapter and has so much love left to give. She is housetrained, great with dogs of all sizes, and has the kind of easy and friendly personality that makes her a joy to be around. She loves her toys and is an enthusiastic and dedicated chewer, so keeping her well supplied with appropriate chew toys will go a long way toward keeping the shoes in your house safe. She is not crate trained but is smart and eager to please, which means a patient family willing to invest in some basic training will find her a wonderfully receptive student. Teddy has been around cats and her instinct is to give chase, so a home without cats or with very patient cat introductions would be the safest fit for everyone involved. She also has a strong interest in chasing cars, so a securely fenced yard is an absolute must to keep this sweet girl safe. Teddy is the kind of dog who simply needs the right family to step up and give her the time, training, and love that her current situation can no longer provide. She is friendly, affectionate, and genuinely great, and she deserves someone who recognizes exactly how special she is. To learn more about Teddy and potentially adopt her from her owner directly, text AARF at 931-260-8018 or visit www.aarf-tn.com today! Interested in adopting?

Prior to adoption, all canines and felines are spayed or neutered, have received their age appropriate vaccinations, have been de-wormed for common parasites, and have received treatment for prevention of fleas and ticks. All canines over the age of 6 months have been tested for heartworm. All canines are put on heartworm prevention as soon as possible - this means dogs as soon as they are tested negative. Puppies are put on prevention immediately. All felines, regardless of age, have been tested for Feline Leukemia/FIV. Each animal receives a health check by a licensed veterinarian prior to adoption. Anything else found will be treated by our organization prior to adoption.
