Meet Eggnog a/k/a Eddie

Meet Eddie 11 lbs | 10 years young | Neutered | Microchipped | House TrainedDon’t let his tiny size fool you, Eddie has a huge personality packed into his little 11 pound body. With one ear that has a mind of its own and an endless supply of charm, he’s impossible not to love. Eddie is the definition of a loyal companion. Whether you’re heading out for a walk, settling in on the couch, or gearing up for ball time, he’s happiest by your side. And don’t be fooled when it’s time to play ball, Eddie means business! He takes fetch very seriously and will enthusiastically let you know when it’s time for another throw. He’s a world class cuddler who absolutely loves being petted, enjoys being carried, loves his daily adventures, and never says no to a tasty treat. While he’s confident and independent, he also enjoys curling up close anytime of the day and will happily soak up all the affection you’re willing to give. Eddie would do best in a quiet, predictable home where he can continue to thrive. He gets along well with small dogs and dog savvy cats but prefers not to share his space with large dogs. Because he values his personal space, he’s looking for an adult only home without young children or frequent visits from them. Eddie has overcome so much during his time in foster care. After learning that people can be trusted, he’s blossomed into a loving, affectionate little guy. Like many dogs with difficult pasts, he communicates through his body language and benefits from people who understand and respect his boundaries. He does have a fear based bite history, so he’ll need an experienced adopter who is committed to continuing the structure and training that help him feel safe and successful. Eddie does require ongoing medical care and a special diet, but his daily routine is wonderfully simple. He takes one medication and one supplement each day and he takes them like an absolute champ! Eddie’s perfect home includes: Someone patient who will let him adjust at his own pace A safe space, such as a wire crate, where he can relax Lots of love, understanding, and plenty of walks, games of fetch, cuddles, pets, and being carried around like the little prince he is Eddie isn’t looking for a perfect family, he’s looking for the right family. Someone who will see beyond his past, appreciate his quirky personality, and love him exactly as he is. If you’re ready for a sweet, devoted best friend who will make you smile every single day, Eddie is ready to meet you.
