About Eddie

Eddie is at the City Shelter, waiting for his forever home. This handsome mixed breed dog is approximately 1-2 years old. When he first arrived, Eddie was a bit uncertain and needed some time to adjust. With patience, he has learned to trust people and now enjoys outdoor time with staff and volunteers. Fetch is his favorite activity. Eddie loves to race after tennis balls and will keep himself entertained for hours, progressively dropping one for another. He’s also a fan of squeaky toys and has fun rolling around with them. Plus, he’s discovered a love for water and has embraced the kiddie pool at the shelter. Eddie knows how to sit and appreciates treats, but toys are often his primary focus. He’s still mastering leash manners, so ongoing training will be key once he settles in. A home where he can be spoiled and cherished is ideal. While he’s met other dogs, Eddie seems to prefer engaging with people and playing with his toys. To set him up for success, a quieter home without toddlers is recommended, as he might be tempted to share their toys. This spirited pup has come a long way since his early days at the shelter. If you think you can give Eddie the loving home he desires, please reach out for more information.
