Likes: He Loved having his picture taken,being wrapped in a blanket, all snuggly, and to be rocked, shopping, "mommy and puppy time"
Pet-Peeves: Hated being left alone
Favorite Toy: His very first toy a stuffed cow, but anything that squeeked, or rolled was great too, he especially like the cats chase the ball tube
Favorite Food: Anything he could sneak, frenchfries, were the best!
Favorite Walk: In the yard running around the fence where his sister Tessa played
Best Tricks: He'd coming running, and prance in front of me, like "here Iam, here Iam" when I'd say,"Mommy can't find you!" Or trying to wake me up by backing up to the closet door and bump it with his butt, then run to the bed to see if I heard him,
Arrival Story: TedEbear was born in my backyard 3 weeks after his mama moved to Iowa from Tennessee, he was one of 7 pups, and the last to get a home, so I decided to keep him.
He was so adorable, but very tiny, so I knew something was wrong, but I wanted to give him the best life to be had.
Bio: TedEbear was a dwarf cause by HYPOTHYROIDISM. At about 3 months of age he started to have violent seizures, sometimes they would be 5 minutes in length other times 20 minutes. He could go weeks without one, or have 8 or more in a day. Most of the time he was cold, so I bought a heated for in my bedroom..or should I say HIS bedroom... This was the start of our "Mommy & Puppy" time, wrapping him in a blanket and rocking him while I watched tv. By 9 months things were pretty well straightened out, with meds, but as he'd start to grow, changes had to be made when he had seizures again.
He was about 2 when his fur started falling out, and he would be pretty naked in spots, so we went shopping to buy sweaters, he enjoyed people making a fuss over how cute he was.
At this point he still had not lost his baby teeth either, but in a way that was good, cause he happened to bite me a few times when he was having seizures, and its good that his teeth were still tiny. But I do have a few scars to always remember him by.
He was almost 2 when we decided it was safe to have him neutered, and in doing a chest x-ray, Kim, our vet, noticed his heart was larger than it should be. Then 6 months later when he had to have another x-ray, it showed his heart had doubled in size, so I knew life for him was not going to be too long
He was my constant companion for 3 1/2 years, still tiny, so he got to be carried a lot, one of his biggest joys! The most he weighed was 9#. This past April (2006) I has 2 heartattacks, and when I came home from the hospital, he was acting terribly "needy". He was very cold all the time, so we spent a lot of time in the rocker, wrapped in a blanket, and at night he got to sleep in my bed, that was when I noticed his breathing was slowing down a lot. I was 5 days from going back to work, the afternoon of May 25th 2006, we were watching tv all snuggled in a blanket in the rocker, when he took his last breath. We went to the local HobbyLobby store and bought a little pine chest, I wrapped him in his blanket, and tucked him inside with 2 of his favorite toys.
Enjoy your stay at THE RAINBOW BRIDGE, my baby, till I come to get you, and we'll never be apart.

Hey there lil brother...we sure do still miss you a lot, BabyBear.
Things here haven't changed too much. G'ma gotta Grandson the year after you left. Born May 10 2007. We sure weren't expecting one to come along. He is pretty cute for a furless child. He likes my little bobble tail so I practice making it wiggle a lot for him. He also likes to feed me leaves and grass he picked. I am very good at taking it from his fingers, then pretend to chew it...he laughs, and laughs!!
He is over two now. I like him alot, but they get a little upset with me when I try to guard him for the other two dogs. We take it in stride though, cause they know I'm a protecter, just as you protected your Mommy so well. She still talks of it and wrote that cute story bout ya. Everyone likes it so much!
G'ma takes really good care of me, cause she knows how sad I was when you left. I still can't call her mommy though, cause she was YOUR Mommy, and my Grandma. So we just go with G'ma.
It's hard to think you have not been here to share our birfday for 4 years now. And its harder to think that somewhere up there is all our brother and sister, cept me, and maybe 'PoohBear' but nobody has really seen him, down here in a long time.
I better go lil BabyBear, G'ma has to get to bed.
Thank You G'ma for letting me write to TedEbear
I wuv you bunches and furever
Have a wonderful birfday party up there at the Bridge.
Happy 7th birfday, my baby brother, TedEbear!!
And Thank You for the beautiful birfday card on my page.
Woofs,Your sister TessaSue
BOL..tomorrow is Be an Angel Day, and Mommy surprised me with a picture using my rainbow splash picture. So I gave her a poem for on it.
OMD I have been soooo busy sending rainbows.
July 24th, 2009 after a really bad storm, but mommys camera malfunctioned, but the second rainbow I sent that night looked much better than the first.
Then August 9th 2009 I outdid myself on that one...BOL ..making it last over ten minutes, and I did two little splashes of color after it had faded.
Then...August 19th, 2009.. that one was WAY better..lasting 20 minutes, and beautiful!!
Then last night too, August 20th, I surprised her with one that was almost in the same place as the one Wednesday evening.
I know she is feeling pretty sad, so I tried to make her feel better.
If you cannot read the poem on my newest picture, here it is:
Be An Angel Day
With neverending unconditional Love
Your little Angel watches you from above
Seeing the pain still in your eyes
I see and hear you're heartbroken cries
Sending you gifts in shades of blue
And many other colors hue
My favorite to send is the Rainbow
See, here Iam, this you know
Watching as only I can do
Sending what comfort I can for you
One day we'll be knocking on Heavens door
We will be apart then, nevermore.
