My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Foster/Foster to Adopt/Adopt

Sweet Eddie is still looking for his happy ever after! Eddie came to us over a year ago from a sad hoarding situation. Eddie spent his whole life in a barn without much human contact or compassion. He has blossomed in his foster home and craves love and attention now. He is still timid and afraid of being picked up but absolutely loves to snuggle with his human on the couch and sleep under the covers of his foster mons bed at night. Eddie does not like loud noises or children. Eddies perfect home would be with an older retired couple or single person that likes to travel and would take Eddie wherever they go. He travels well in the car, but is still afraid of his leash. He has no trouble riding in a pet stroller though! Eddie is house trained but does have occasional accidents. He is neutered microchipped dewormed and up to date on his vaccines including rabies. He had his teeth cleaned and a few extractions when he first arrived. He is about 6 years old now and is ready to fill your heart and home with love! If you are interested in Eddie please fill out an application https://www.ozziespoundpuppies.org/index.php/applications/adoption-application/

More about this rescue

Ozzies Pound Puppies is an all breed dog rescue based in Concord, CA. Our volunteers are committed to rescuing unwanted and abandoned dogs from the public and from shelters. Ozzies is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that receives no government funds. You can help make a difference for a shelter dog by fostering, adopting, volunteering or donating.

WHAT WE DO
Every day, hundreds of dogs are euthanized in shelters across the nation. City and county shelters are overrun with stray and surrendered dogs and have run out of space, this is why they have to euthanize dogs. Dogs are only given a short time to be adopted and then they get put down. Our Rescue will take in dogs that have run out of time at the shelter and find homes for them, thus freeing up shelter space and finding adoptable dogs a new family.
