We brought Teddy home yesterday. He’s done the circuit around the house a couple of times and had no problem negotiating the deck stairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ron took him out last night. I did the 3:30 am shift this morning. 20 degrees but no wind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He was very restless. I gave him his anti-anxiety med.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Right now he’s panting at the top of the stairs, and I’m hoping to lure him with cheese to visit me in my den.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I was out with him yesterday afternoon and grateful for our house, our yard, for Ron and for Teddy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Update: he made it down the stairs! Good dog! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He was lying in the den but started getting restless. In spite of cheese, we had to carry him back up stairs: not easy for Ron so early in the day. He wasn’t pleased but he didn’t bite us. Some carpentry needed before he comes downstairs again, I think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brought him outside again around 6 am. Fed him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Took him out a couple more times, in the yard and the field. Ron walked him twice in the field. We all got a fair amount of outdoor time today. Teddy’s not bothered by other dogs in the neighborhood.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
