About Edelstein Tx

Edelstein Tx is a relaxed, independent older gentleman who’s content doing his own thing. He enjoys a good stroll around the yard and settles nicely in his kennel afterward, though he’d much rather stretch out in a quiet home. Edelstein walks easily on leash, is simple to handle, and greets both people and other dogs with a calm friendliness. At about 13 years old and weighing around 18 pounds, he brings an easygoing presence wherever he goes. He came from Texas with a history of dry eye that’s under control with drops and still lets him see the world just fine. He’s also receiving meds for a double ear infection, and his heart checks out strong. Edelstein does have a few masses that a vet will take a closer look at—if anything further is needed, it’ll get addressed. He’s the kind of companion who’ll happily hang out with you on the couch and enjoy each day as it comes. Edelstein is looking for a place to spend his golden years in comfort.
