About Tebo’s Breed:
Our best guess is that Tebo is a Labrador/Pitbull Terrier mixed breed. Labrador/Pit Bull mixes often blend the best qualities of both breeds—the Lab’s friendly, eager to please nature and the Pit Bull’s affectionate, loyal, people oriented personality. They’re typically social, intelligent, and deeply bonded to their families, making them wonderful companions for both active adventures and relaxed downtime. Many have a playful streak paired with a gentle, loving disposition.
An ideal home for a Lab/Pit mix is one that offers regular exercise, positive training, and plenty of companionship. They thrive with families who enjoy outdoor activities, appreciate a dog who wants to be part of daily life, and can provide structure and affection. With their big hearts and enthusiastic spirits, they do best in homes where they’re included, engaged, and loved as a true member of the family.
What to Love about Tebo:
If you’ve been dreaming of a warm, loving couch companion, Tebo is ready to claim that spot right beside you! He’s the ultimate cuddle buddy, a devoted shadow, and a calm, gentle presence who loves everyone he meets — people and dogs alike.
Tebo isn’t playful these days, but he has the quiet sophistication of an older gentleman who prefers observing the world from the comfort of a cozy couch. He would make the PERFECT Netflix partner and proudly considers himself a binge watching expert, as long as you’re there to share the blankets!
After spending his previous life outdoors with another dog, Tebo is soaking up every bit of comfort he can — soft beds, warm blankets, and all the affection he’s missed out on. He’s still working on his potty training, but he’s crate trained, respectful in the house, and eager to learn. He absolutely adores his young human brother and loves being near him, offering gentle companionship throughout the day!
Tebo walks nicely on a leash and enjoys slow, easy strolls around the neighborhood. With his submissive, mellow nature, he would fit beautifully into any relaxed, laid back household. He doesn’t ask for much — just love, softness, and a place on the couch next to his people.
