Eddie is one handsome dude!
He's playful and goofy, but has an affectionate side, too - he loves to give kisses. He appears to be a Fox Terrier mix born probably mid-May 2017. He's new to SOS so we're still getting acquainted with him. We know he's good with other dogs and enjoys a good game of chase or a bit of rough wrestling. He LOVES toys, meeting new people, finds new places quite interesting and is perfectly happy to chill when it's time. Living in a shelter environment, Eddie has not had any life skills training yet - things like house training and crate training, but he does well on leash. He's a smart dude and eager to please so with lots of praise, encouragement and treats, he should pick all this up just fine. Group obedience classes with his new human(s) will be an important part of his canine education. He can continue to work on socialization and confidence building while learning cool stuff with you! Though a fenced yard would be ideal, daily leash walks for exercise, business and pleasure will work, too.
Eddie's really looking forward to having his very own forever home complete with forever humans. Can that home be yours? Fill out an application today and his people will get right back to you!
