Moreover, the pet dog that goes by the name Teddy finds himself quite close to the tempting aroma of the meal. The fans reacted strongly to the video, feeling unhappy about Sharpe’s dog being so close to the food on the dining table. They found it unpleasant and even labeled it as “nasty.” A user commented,

All I can hear is my mama yelling “Don’t bring that fucking dog in my kitchen while I’m cooking”! Take it outside! Now!

Shannon Sharpe’s Pomeranian Purchase Shocked Chad Johnson
Recently, on their podcast “Nightcap,” Shannon Sharpe disclosed the cost of his Pomeranian dog to his co-host Chad Johnson. On the show, Unc revealed that he bought the dog from another country. Ocho seemed confused about why Sharpe went to great lengths to acquire Teddy. Ocho was really taken aback when he got to know about the dog’s price tag of a whopping $10000. He said,
“Man, you paid $10,000 for a dog? 10,000 American dollars? C’mon, man, I could’ve gotten you a Pom out of the city for $300!”

Upon hearing this, Johnson was visibly shocked and scolded the former TE, stating that Sharpe could have bought a Pomeranian in the city for $300 instead. However, Unc clarified that he felt a bond with Teddy and was determined to make him a part of the family. It’s obvious how much he has grown to love the Pomeranian puppy, as he didn’t even flinch when Teddy was near the Thanksgiving table.
