Eddie is a chill, relaxed boy. He will lay down and take a nap while his foster people are watching tv, but he definitely loves to be involved in whatever you're doing!
He's VERY treat motivated!
`Eddie is good with kids of all ages!
He loves to chase grasshoppers. He hasn't caught any yet, but he's so happy trying.
Other than the treat oriented toys, he doesn't seem interested in toys.
Eddie is a bit nervous whenever encountering something new but warms up very quickly. He is scared of loud noises. He loves to go on walks.
He's only had one accident and that was in the car during his freedom ride. I think he may have been super nervous. Otherwise, he's kept his kennel clean at night and has no accidents when out and about in the house.
Eddie is a very sweet boy.
While at the vet, he saw other dogs from about 20ish feet away and just seemed interested in them. He didn't lunge or bark at them. He also saw a cat while inside and was the same, just seemed really interested. He hasn't been introduced to my dog, so I'm not yet sure how he does in direct contact.
He settles down very well in the kennel at night or whenever we have to leave during the day. I do put a couple treats into the kennel to remind him it's a good/safe place, and he goes right in.
The vet thought he was maybe a shepherd/lab mix. He weighed in at 57.4 pounds.
Eddie definitely loves his breakfast and dinner! He eats a bit quickly, so I think he would benefit from a slow feeder bowl.
He is such a snuggler! Any pets and love he can get from people is his motivation.
He did well letting me brush him. Just happily sat patiently loving all the attention.
