Rebellious puppy has ‘the energy of a toddler after 3 juice boxes’ — and needs a home

During puppyhood, most dogs are blessed (and sometimes cursed) with boundless energy and can take on the persona of furry little velociraptor loose in Jurassic Park.
Take Teddy, for instance — an 8-month-old cute devil of a dog who was returned to the Helping Hands Human Society in Topeka, Kansas, thanks to that brimming puppy spirit.
Which included destruction.
“Hey, it’s me..Teddy! I know what you’re thinking: ‘Why is this ridiculously handsome puppy at the shelter?’” the shelter playfully said in a Dec. 17 Facebook post. “Well, apparently throwing house parties when your humans leave is frowned upon. Who knew?”
Of course, this is normal for puppies without training who are still learning at a young age.
“I’ll admit, I’m in my rebellious phase. I’m 8 months old, I’ve got the energy of a toddler after 3 juice boxes, and my smile? Permanent. (The proof is in the photos—sad is not my brand. Peep my cute baby pic at the end.) I may be a little too good at having fun, but what preteen isn’t?” the shelter said.
Teddy’s loves include:
People
Other dogs
Fun
Teddy would be best suited in a home where his people can provide him some much needed structure and proper outlets for all that energy. And who, of course, are just as happy as he is.
