We adopted Teddy from the SPCA (The Animal Shelter in Hong Kong) about two years ago. He was in bad shape then, with infected ears, ....... Around three years old at the time, Teddy was apparently neglected all his life before. He was found living and wandering in the country park. At the SPCA, becaue of an unbobbed tail, Teddy had a hard time finding a home and was about to be put to sleep before we adopted him. Teddy is now a loved family member and my great hiking companion. He knows his way in the bush and will hike for 7-8 hours non-stop and still begs for more. Teddy is incredibly energetic.
