Chubby He has settled into life very well and adapted to a routine quickly. Teddy is very smart, already sitting on command most of the time, quick to stop an undesirable behavior when told, and really learning the words we use every day. He is very people-oriented AND treat-oriented, which makes for a great combination when it comes to training. I love that he's actually happier getting love and praise for a good deed than getting treats. Teddy was instantly fascinated and in love with George, the cat and they've worked out a silly kind of play that usually involves George lying on the floor while Teddy dances around him like a baby goat, barking. They do also play chase around the house and poor Teddy is lost and sad when George decides to "hide" up high. Every night, one of my rituals for George has been to throw some treats for him that he likes to catch in mid-air. It didn't take Teddy long to catch on to the game and now when it's that time of night, Teddy gets some treats, too. Teddy absolutely LOVES running around the back yard. He likes to jump over things and is getting to be pretty agile. I think getting some back yard agility equipment and working with him on that would be good for everyone.
So, if you hadn't figured it out, we adore him. He's a great fit and everyone loves him.
