Teddy the Cockapoo

Teddy is our company four legged friend.

He often contributes to online sessions by barking in the background, Pushing the door open so he can come and say hello on camera, or just because he wants a fuss.

We think he is super cute, but then again we are slightly biased.

You never know he may make a guest appearance for you, If he does please do say hello….. Woof!
