About Eddie

Eddie is a lively and affectionate 2-year-old heeler/bulldog/beagle/pit bull mix looking for an active home. He thrives on energy, enjoying outdoor playtime with fetch and tug, but also relishes lazy couch cuddles for naps. Eddie's intelligence shines through his ability to perform a range of commands and tricks, especially when treats are involved. He’s friendly and enthusiastic around everyone he meets, both people and dogs, but this lovable boy would do best in a home without small children. With his medium size, short coat, and vibrant personality, Eddie is ready to be a part of an experienced family that can keep up with his fun-loving nature. Homeward Bound Dog Rescue operates with a foster system instead of a shelter, so Eddie is currently in a loving foster home. You must apply online for adoption.
