TED, HARRY & FRED
TED
Also known as Teddy Bear, Teddence, Teddy Bo Beddy and Tedward.
Enjoys: naps in the sun, bikkies and playing with humans, other dogs and George. His newest fascination is Fred!
Hates: his claws being clipped and people not saying "biiiiiig stretch" when he has a big stretch!
Ted is our dog, he is a three year old purebred German Shorthaired Pointer.
He was born in Rockhampton, Australia and was raised by us from 10 weeks old while we were living in Bundaberg. Ted has been trained as a gun dog, and has a impressive bloodline of retrieving champions. He came back home with us (Linden and Sam) at the start of 2022 and has since been enjoying the dog friendly environment here in Cromwell, and some occasional deer hunting.
He is a good boy, but can be overly friendly and very energetic!
Ted responds well to usual commands such as ‘sit’, ‘stay’ and ‘Ted come’, and will love you forever if you show him any attention at all!
HARRY
Also known as Harry Bo Barry, Harryson and Cutie-Poh-Tootie.
Enjoys: throat scratches and being hand fed treats.
Hates: loud noises and Fred when he's being an annoying!
Harry is our five year old domestic shorthair cat.
Born in Bundaberg, Australia and adopted by us at the age of two, Harry has had a huge journey with Sam and Linden back to NZ!
He can usually be found snoozing in the sun somewhere around the property!
Harry can be a little skittish with new people, but once he gets to know you he's just like every other cat... and will only come to you on his own terms!
He is currently on a diet after having a big Spring of eating bunnies during his nightly walks!
FRED
Also known as Freddie, Fred-Fred or Fluffybum/butt.
Enjoys: walking under everyones feet, meowing to let the neighbourhood know he's hungry, and sitting on anyones lap for a snuggle!
Hates: not being fed on time!
Fred is a 1 year old Ragdoll, our most recent addition to the Mathstone whanau.
He's trying hard to be best friends with Harry (much to Harrys distaste!) and is already best mates with Ted.
He can usually be found snoozing anywhere Harry is!
Freddie is still quite young, so sometimes he'll nibble your finger if he's annoyed (a bit like Ginny!!)
