Teja (TAY-zha) is a sweet, gorgeous, affectionate pittie mix looking eagerly for her adoring forever family. Teja wants to be your pal, follow you around, and do whatever you do - her happy place is right next to you or in your lap. She’s also comfortable being on her own and snuggling into a pile of blankets for a nap. She loves cuddles, pets, and kindly attention of any kind. She enjoys car rides and is up for whatever adventure you go on. She’s really smart and already knows sit, down, stay, and kennel. You can ask her to sit when you want to put her leash on. She’s very cooperative and eager to please and everything is accompanied by butt wiggles. Teja has medium energy, is playful, and enjoys chewing on antlers and toys - however, she needs to be supervised with toys because she loves to tear them apart. She loves slow, sniffy walks and greeting people who want to stop and say “hi.” Her weight is a bit deceiving - she’s not a big dog, just blocky and dense with short legs. Nicknames include “Baby Hippo,” “Little Potato,” and “Baby Bunny;” her sweet demeanor and personality inspire terms of endearment. In some circumstances, she can be a little anxious but reassurances, gentle pets, and a treat help her understand that all is well. Come and meet this girl and you will fall in love.
Breed and age are often determined on appearance, our own knowledge, veterinarian advice, and/or information from the sending shelters or previous owners. Most of our adoptable dogs were previously stray dogs with little history, we can’t be 100% sure of a dog’s breed mix, and unless there is a specific date of birth listed, we can’t be 100% sure of a dog’s age. Additionally, our assessments of a dog's interactions with other dogs, cats, or children are based on OUR experiences. Your experience may differ.
