It is the first designer dog to receive a copyright and trademark that belongs to one entity. Our tiny Teddy Bear puppies are family raised (excellent with children) and very well socialized. Teddy Bear puppies have hair and not fur so they are non-shedding and considered very low in dander. They get along great with people who have allergies. A trip to the groomer every 8-10 weeks keeps them looking their best at all times. The average adult weight is between 8-15 pounds. All of our puppies are all vacinated, wormed, Vet certified, ATBA certified and come with Health Guarantee for up to 1 year against congenital defects. The Teddy Bear is a Hybrid Designer dog that was developed about 13 years ago by Rene's Wonderful World of Teddy Bear puppies. Warning: Numerous breeders are misrepresenting and defiling America's fastest growing designer breed of dog, the "Teddy Bear puppy". Our puppies are registered with the ATBA (American Teddy Bear Association)and our breeding dogs are certified by the ATBA for creating the perfect dog called the Teddy Bear puppy. If you are interested in owning a Teddy Bear puppy, do your research and make sure you are getting an genuine Teddy Bear.
