Extremely precarious state
As the men spent more time with the dog, it became abundantly clear to them that the canine was in a state that could be described as extremely precarious. At the very least, it seemed as though the dog was monitoring what was going on in the room from its vantage point in the middle of it all.
The internal temperature of the puppy was of the utmost importance, and the care and maintenance of the puppy was given the utmost priority. In time, everyone would know that the pet’s name was Teddy, and the name would come to be universally associated with the animal.
