This is the true story of the dog Tedward, a Labrador/German Shepherd mix, and his owner Caryl, who shared many interesting and often humorous adventures in the Colorado Rockies and other areas of the west. This dog was able to "strike a bargain" with the local coyote pack at Grouse Creek Livery, site of the old Meadow Mountain Ski area, 5 miles west of Vail. He became what one biologist termed an "honorary pack member", allowed to interact and even eat with these coyotes. The fact that Caryl chased 2 of the coyotes away from Tedward near the beginning of the first summer by shouting and galloping toward them on her horse Joe, probably contributed a great deal towards the coyotes' acceptance of Tedward. Caryl, a naturalist in her own right who has published articles on coyote behavior, believes that the coyotes decided not to kill Tedward out of respect for his human and horse protectors. Tedward thrilled many of the horse-riding guests, who sometimes got to witness this bold and adventurous dog playing with his wild cousins. Tedward possessed a remarkable ability to befriend animals of other species, and often to engage them in play. Caryl writes about her pet rat, Moon, who loved to nip Tedward's toes and leap on his back from the couch. Tedward was also an accomplished thief, as he was observed stealing a thick steak from the Grouse Creek kitchen counter and high-tailing it out the door, much to the annoyance of the chuckwagon cook, Dan. He apparently could understand English, as he demonstrated to Caryl when she instructed him to "guard the lodge and don't let anyone inside". (He had been banned by Dave from the chuckwagon site due to an unfortunate incident with a dead marmot.) There was positive proof that he followed those instructions to the letter. Tedward also had quite an impact on the people in his life, from Dave, the manager of Grouse Creek, whom he drove to distraction with his mischievous ways, to the frail little old ladies of the nursing homes, who

I really wasn’t expecting much from this book. I work in a veterinary hospital and was introduced to the author by one of our clients. As we were talking she mentioned this book she had written about her dog called Tedward.I looked it up on amazon , and downloaded a sample, expecting it to be poorly written. Instead it was totally charming. I could clearly picture her stories as she wrote them. Some of the situations she got into were harrowing. I loved how she shared stories of the people and animals in her life-horses, dogs and wildlife. Some were happy and some tore at your heart. Made me yearn nostalgically for the 70’s. I’m looking forward to talking with her about Tedward the next time she comes in.
I agree with several other reviewers-I wanted more stories!
And Tedward-what a great original name!

Tedward Caryl Pearson 9781478739227 Books Reviews
I hesitated giving this book five stars because of one problem–it wasn't long enough. Reading the tales, (or tails) of the author and her dog made me feel as if I had been with them on their adventures. The writer's rare and unique voice is very engaging. Her wit and description of events causes this book to be one I don't regret obtaining.
If this is a snippet of her life, how many other escapades has she been on? I look forward to reading about them in a future release or two and hope to find out if she ever did get to hear a wolf howl. Until then, when I go out at night onto the deck in my backyard and hear the coyotes howl, I'll always think of Tedward.
Enjoy the travels and adventures of this interesting woman and her dog. If you love nature and animals this will be a very satisfying read. The author's wonderful sense of humor is a real plus...it makes the pages melt away far too quickly. Hopefully she'll share somemore of her life with Tedward and her other critters...
Book supplied by author.
Why a greatrltionship betwain Caryl and her dog, Tedward and her horse, Joe!
Great book!
I agree with another reviewer that the book is way too short (that's a good thing)! I'm sure there are many more stories about Tedward and Caryl's life that we didn't get to hear. I'd read any stories she told because she's very funny and it makes for easy reading. Authors don't usually speak so candidly and casually; it's refreshing. Her descriptions of their travels make me eager to go out on my own!
I enjoyed reading Tedward. The author does a beautiful job of describing the environments of the various places where she & Tedward lived. Her details & stories about Tedward, as well as friends, are humorous and fun to read. Caryl Pearson's writing has a strong voice, which makes for a good read.
This book is just a lot of fun to read! The stories about Tedward and the author's other animals are hilarious. The author's love of animals comes through on every page, and her observations and reflections on animal behavior are interesting and informative. Tedward sounds like an amazing dog--I wish I had met him. I highly recommend this book for animal lovers everywhere.
