My boy is back
Click on the teo1 above to see a short clip of him totally ignoring me for the ball!
If you are reading this, you are surely a pet owner who has an idea what your pet in crisis is like. And you hopefully know when that pet’s spirit has returned. Teo is back and not letting the gimpy leg hold him back one bit.
We have had significant snow fall in the last week, a real challenge for young Teo as he learns the hop. I give him credit, he’s made it happen with a style all his own. And to his credit, he found a squeaky ball the cat knocked off a shelf. To say he was enthusiastic would be the understatement of the year. He went crazy, and when I started tossing it in the back yard…. oh my, my boy is back! For all the frowny faces around the house for a week, they sure evaporated once the ball was in play.
So now we wait, for things to chill out, muscles to build and others to evaporate, and we prepare for surgery in a few weeks and a new life that the humans around here seem to take harder than the k9.

Wow Teo, that is some snow! And you are some Tripawd for figuring out how to get around in it. What fun!
I know you are going to teach your people so many things about loving life despite these challenges. We call it “being more dog.”
Teo, you are AMAZING.

Thanks Jerry. While dad was gone at work, I totally surprised my babysitters with my energy and ball retrieving skills. I was a little sore at night but man that ball is worth it.
