Are you right for Eddie?Eddie is a sensitive chap looking for an adult only home where he’ll be the only pet. He has very minimal leaving hours and must have a secure garden to zoom around in. He will need patient adopters willing to continue working with him once home, but full support will be given from our training team.Is Eddie right for you?Sweet little Eddie is a brilliant dog who loves being around his favourite people but is also very independent and likes his own space. He isn’t a lap dog and prefers to be on the go, on adventures or curled up in his own bed. He forms great bonds with people and gives the best greetings! He has bags of personality and will be a great addition to the right family.
