Likes:
Sleeping.... he also loves to howl with gal pal, Tikaani. They can go on forever. Teekon is also a HUGE fan of water.

Pet-Peeves:
He's still working on getting to be more socialized, but he's come a long way. He also likes to "pinch" when your not paying enough attention.

Favorite Toy:
Tikaani... He doesn't chew on toys much, when he wants to play, he harasses Tikaani and they go at it.

Favorite Food:
Venison and pizza crusts. But he's never turned his nose up to anything, ever.

Favorite Walk:
The canal park. He's getting used to the people, but mostly he loves to smell, well, everything, and to watch the ducks. Most of all, he loves the water.

Best Tricks:
"Tricks, I don't need no stinkin' tricks..."- yeah, we're still working on that one.

Arrival Story:
Teekon actually had owners who cared for him. But once again, the "wolf" thing got in the way. They feared he'd "turn" someday, which is a very common myth. To protect him the kept him isolated from outsiders. He was great with the people he knew, but very shy and scared of anything outside his world. When he discovered a cat one day, it looked like something to chase. He did, and the cat wasn't fast enough. Teek was only a pup, but his owners were convinced it was a bad omen. He had to go.

Bio:
Teekon has come a very long way, and is still working on getting more comfortable in public places. He's a differant animal than he was a year ago. he has learned a lot, like how to sit, walk on a leash, eat only on command, walk on stairs, hog the bed, hog the couch, take a shower... The list continues to grow. Luckily Teek had a good influence from Tok in his young life, and hopefully will carry that into his adult years. I see potential in him, as I had in Tok years ago.
