Teddy is ready to find his forever home. Almost a month ago, Teddy was headed to a surgical center to have mast cell tumors removed from his hind leg. Today, his leg is healing great and he’s ready to start meeting potential adopters. Adopters will need to monitor for more tumors that could arise in the future but we hope this surgery will allow Teddy to live his best years yet. Teddy is 10 years old, and he came to us when his owner could no longer care for him. He is a great, well-behaved dog. He rides really well in the car. Teddy also did well when tested with other dogs here. He has not yet been tested with cats. Teddy is now neutered, current on vaccines, and microchipped. His adoption fee has been sponsored. Apply online to adopt: https://www.anitas-sshs.org/adopt/apply/Dog. Anita’s Stevens-Swan Humane Society, 5664 Horatio St., Utica, 315-738-4357, www.anitas-sshs.org.
