Teddy Pom Pom
Dear folks at JBAR,
Teddy Pom Pom has been a member of our family since December of 2015. At first Yoshi, our Japanese Chin was a bit intimidated by him, but we have all come to realize that Teddy's method of play includes a loud growl and bark, whereas Yoshi hardly makes a sound.
The 'boys' get along fairly well at this point.
Teddy still has some issues with Yoshi playing with toys--even if Teddy is no where near the toy when he picks it up. And we have to put Teddy into his crate to eat so that Yoshi gets to eat also. Otherwise, Teddy gobbles his own and goes after Yoshi's. We understand where that is coming from. He probably had to fight for food and toys before he came to JBAR.
He doesn't mind getting brushed, but doing his teeth is a bit of a battle. But it still gets done.
Teddy is a good boy and he and Yoshi watch out for each other and when we go walking, if one finds the other not near-by, he looks around and goes back for the other.
We are so glad that we adopted Teddy.
I wish I had a picture of how we sleep at night--Teddy has me on one side and Yoshi is on the other. Boy! Do I have trouble getting out of bed in the middle of the night!!
Attached are some pictures.
