🇺🇸
Austin, Minnesota

male, large, adult
DESCRIPTION
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Teddy originally came to us in November 2025 as an owner surrender due to rental restrictions. His owner was able to adopt him back a month later, but she had to bring him back to us in August 2026 because of a tough and sad situation. Teddy is now a young adult at only a year old and is a really happy and loving boy. He's a pit bull/lab mix with a few other things mixed in and currently weighs around 35 pounds. He has vet checked, neutered, and microchipped, and his adoption fee is $150.
Teddy has had a bit of basic training but is ready for more. He's active and playful. Teddy has done well with other dogs and cats. We do think he'd be fine with older kids. He'd do best in a home in which he's not left alone for long hours. He is also fun-loving and eager to please. He's a smart pup with a lot of potential! He's a good size, too. Not too small and not too large.
NOTE: Adoptions are done via private appointment once an application has been completed and approved. Applications must be submitted at our website, mchs.rescuegroups.org.
We are located at 101 22nd St. SE in Austin, right next to the airport. It's exit 180B off of I-90, right off of 218 South.
We do require that potential adopters be at least 21 years old and that any resident dogs be up to date on vaccinations, heartworm testing/preventatives, and spayed or neutered.
