The Teddy Report: March

Teddy Laurence Simon is our 5lb Yorkie who has accompanied us to Rio.  Many people have been asking how he is doing, so I figured I would start a ‘Monthly Teddy Report’.

So far he is comfortable and used to our apartment, but is a bit discouraged by the ‘Teddy Proofing’ that had to be done to keep him from going up the stairs.  We went on a nice walk this morning, so many new smells, things to see, sniff, pee on.. it took us about 30 minutes to walk the 3 blocks to the beach. Once we arrived, he was SO happy and darted into the sand heading straight for the ocean!! He LOVES the ocean. Just like a little kid, he creeps up, touches the water and as soon as a wave comes he either tries to ‘jump’ in it/ start swimming out or runs away.  Our rooftop pool is a different situation…

As you can see and hear, he was not happy about anyone being in or near the pool.  Yes, he really does shriek like that every time anyone goes near the pool, but…………….. once he gets IN the pool

It’s a whole different story and he loves it! Look at what a good little swimmer he is (I’m so proud).  Stay tuned for more Teddy adventures…
