Eddie is looking for a family! 🐾
Eddie originally came to our shelter as a stray, and sadly his family did not come to look for him. Eddie is estimated to be about 2 years old and weighs between 20-25lbs. He would make the perfect pint-sized adventure buddy.
Eddie is currently in a foster home. This is what his foster parent has this to say about him:
"He’s a puppy and loves to play and walk. His barking at others is just an act – he gets along well with others and other dogs. He initially barks, then settles down.
He doesn’t mean to be destructive, but he is tough on soft toys, so I only let him play with tough rubber toys and the tennis ball.
Overall, he’ll be a wonderful pet for someone who is ready for his energy!"
Eddie's foster has been working with him on crate training and other house manners.
If you think you might like to meet this cute pooch, please submit an adoption survey at chicoanimalshelter.org
