Teddy is a sweet boy who has lots of energy. He would do best in a home with another dog and a large yard to play. He has some separation anxiety which is managed with Prozac. I think having a canine companion could help manage his anxiety as well. He’s very playful and friendly, and has never shown any aggression. The reason for rehoming is I live in an apartment and work full time.
