We recently took a trip to the Brevard Zoo.


Teag enjoyed being able to walk in his new doggie shoes Mattie selected for him.

Mattie was being a great and protective big sister making sure Teag did not stick his hand through the fence to try to touch the emu.


Bubba helped Teag feed the lorikeets some nectar.

The lorikeets couldn't decided which was sweeter, Mattie or the nectar.

Teag was fascinated by the beautiful and friendly birds.

Next it was time to feed the cockatiels.

Bubba had to pay attention so that Teag did not try to eat the bird seed.

The birds really liked Mattie.

Teag liked the fence.

Then it was over to feed the giraffes. Bubba helped Teag give the giraffe the first cracker, especially since we were unsure of how he would react. He LOVED it! He reached for the second cracker and gave it to the giraffe all by himself!

After giving the animals lunch it was time to cool off...

...and play sea turtles in the sand.

It was a great day for everyone!
