Stacey Solomon was overcome with emotion as she shared distressing news about her dog Teddy on the latest episode of the Stacey and Joe show on BBC One. The series chronicles the daily life of Stacey, her husband Joe Swash, and their family at Pickle Cottage, where they reside with their assortment of pets, including rescue spaniel Teddy. However, in the recent episode, Teddy fell ill suddenly on Good Friday, losing the ability to walk, prompting Stacey to rush him to the vet for urgent care.
Upon the arrival of Joe and their son Zachary at the vet’s office, Stacey tearfully informed them about Teddy’s condition, expressing her distress over the situation. She explained that Teddy seemed to have slipped a disc in his back, causing paralysis due to pressure on his spinal cord. Joe shared his concerns about the slim chances of Teddy recovering fully and the dilemma of deciding whether to proceed with a risky operation.
Despite the uncertainty, the couple decided to proceed with surgery for Teddy, leaving him in the care of the veterinary team overnight. Stacey, still emotional, confided in her sister Gemma about Teddy’s situation, highlighting the low chances of recovery and the difficult decision ahead. She also expressed her worries about how to explain the situation to her children, acknowledging the possibility that Teddy might not return home.
In a recent Instagram update, Stacey revealed that Teddy, post-surgery, is adapting to life in a wheelchair, accepting his new reality with resilience and a positive attitude. The video showed Stacey expressing gratitude for the support and concern for Teddy’s well-being from her followers, emphasizing his cheerful disposition despite his permanent disability.
Stacey and Joe’s show airs on Tuesday nights at 8 pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer, offering viewers a glimpse into the couple’s family life and the challenges they face, including Teddy’s health journey.
