Eddie is the definition of a good boy! On his recent walk, he showed off his excellent manners - staying calm, walking beautifully on leash, and matching his handler’s pace like a pro. His love for sniffing everything along the way is unmatched (he’s a true nose-to-the-ground explorer), but he’s always attentive and connected to his person. When other dogs pass by, Eddie is the picture of politeness - no barking, just a calm “hello” and sometimes even a polite sit to let them go by.
Eddie adores pets, and when he’s happy, his tail wiggles so hard it makes his whole body dance. He already knows “sit,” and we’re sure he’ll impress you with how eager he is to please - especially if a pup cup is involved! We’re still learning more about Eddie, but one thing’s for sure: he’s a gentle, loving companion who’s ready to share all his good-boy energy with a lucky family.
This is what Eddie`s foster family has to say:
`Having had Eddie for one week we can confidently say he’s a certified good boy. He’s so cuddly and sweet, very good with people, and he seems like he’d be very good with dogs although we’ve obviously not tested that theory! He`s the ultimate sniffer and loves his walkies. He does such a cute noise with his snout that sounds like he’s snoring but really he’s just excited or happy, it’s adorable. He is playful but very good at keeping himself occupied when you need a break, and he’s fantastic in the car. He’s the perfect dog.`
If you are interested in adopting Eddie, please email alyssa.dipadova@atlasnetwork.org to arrange an initial meet and greet with the pet’s foster parent or a staff member. They will reply to you within 24-48 hours.
