That my friend is Ted recovering from his "Accident".
Here is Ted right after his "Accident". The neck brace is a nice touch, no?

Engaging Pet Story Helps Kids Understand How Government Works
snip
"I am very excited about the opportunity to create a book for young readers and their families that will deepen their understanding of how our American government works," said Senator Edward M. Kennedy. "Reading is a lifelong adventure, and I hope that this book will spark an interest in young people to learn more about their government and to explore the joy of books."
My Senator and Me: A Dog's-Eye View of Washington, D.C. tells the story of Senator Kennedy and his dog, Champion Amigo's Seventh Wave (nicknamed "Splash" by his original owner) and a day in their life in the Senate. A Portuguese Water Dog, Splash is always at Senator Kennedy's side - in his office, at press conferences, in meetings at the Capitol and even right outside the Senate chamber. Told from Splash's point of view, this charming picture book not only takes readers through a full day in the Senator's life, but also explains how a bill becomes a law. My Senator and Me also includes biographies of Senator Kennedy and Splash.

That picture is just so wrong on so many levels.
A dog named "Splash?" Was that a gift from Mary Jo Kopechne's parents?
"Mary Jo said to me, Teddy I'm pregnant."
"Mary Jo, I said, Will cross that bridge when we get there."
Considering Kennedy's past, pretty tasteless name, isn't it? You stay classy Ted!
Don't the Dems already have a book. Communist Manifesto.
FOFL .. what the heck is that
Great post! Thanks!
I think that's after Ted hurt his back in an airplane crash (and probably the last time he could look down and see his feet).
get 'em young
Mary Jo wishes she could have had a chance to write a children's book...la
Did "Tookie" Williams teach Teddy how to write children's books?
"..Splash is always at Senator Kennedy's side"
How ironic..
Nickname SPLASH! You can't be serious!
See Mary. See Mary plunge. See Ted. See Ted swim. Swim Ted, swim. See Ted lie. Lie Ted, lie. See Ted run. Run Ted, run. See fools vote. Vote fools, vote. See Ted smile. Smile Ted, smile. See money talk. Talk money, talk. See justice die. Die justice, die.
She single handedly kept this drunk mass brain dead lib outta the WH!!!!!
Waaaaaaahhhhhh - Mommy that bad book made me cry. Make it go away!
Doing children's books didn't help Tookie, in the end. I'm still hoping Ted's past will catch up to him

"Nickname SPLASH! You can't be serious!"
Notice how the article points out that the "original owner" named him that.
Seriously, I owned one of these dogs and they are great. Very smart too, I'm surprised the poor thing didn't try to swim away when he found out what his master was like. Maybe the dog likes scotch?
